Figured that title would make you look. Actually did shoot a spike bull today, but not with a ML and not while I was hunting. Poor thing got hit by a car and I was sent to insure it didn't get into the road again and cause another accident. one round from a .40 s&w did the job. Not the way I wanted to get an Elk this year, bummed me out. Our season starts saturday and it is going to be a wet one. But the woods will be quiet. Happy hunting to you all.

meat is meat if they let you keep it...

Did 'ya have to shoot the car too?

don't get to touch it, state law. I had radio call the state game dept. to notify them. It was missing when I drove by it later. State probably picked it up and took it to one of the local wolf havens.

What a bummer! I think I might have had to sneak a backstrap off of that sucker.

I was tempted to do that, zip it open down the spine, but my kids like to eat and I need my job. the car that hit it didn't have much damage, it left the scene before I got there.

Hey sr, good luck in the upcoming season.

When is the new Cabelas opening in Lacey?

In 2005, my nephew killed the highest scoring non-typical Roosevelt ever shot in Oregon. He shot it with a bow and it even topped the rifle record. It was 381 4/8 non-typical. Was also#5 typical in archery at 346 4/8.

These scores can be found on this site. Look in the "Top 10's" section.

Cabelas is going to do a full animal mount using these horns and it will be on display in the Lacey store.

Thats too bad you couldnt keep that elk. Really stupid law. Good luck on the upcoming season.
