billrquimby Report post Posted August 7, 2011 Shot a cow elk this morning at first light with the help of Bullwidgeon's uncles and grandfather in one of the depredation hunts that started Friday around Springerville/Eagar. 275 pounds of meat, according to Rusty the butcher. My score on elk isn't anything like TJ's, but I think it was my 12th or 13th elk, but only my second cow. I'm calling it my 75th birthday present to myself, even though my birthday isn't until next month. Bill Quimby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
