Got my bull back !

[sportfish]

I got my Montana archery bull elk back ! He's not a giant but the hunt was bigger than Boone and  Crockett could score !

Looks good but try and take a few more pictures that aren't so grainy so we can see it better. And maybe get your big pumpkin out of the way!

nice.  How was the drive home from the taxidermist?  If not in an enclosed trailer you get a few looks, a few beeps and thumbs up and thumbs down when driving home.

this better Leech ? the ride home was fine , I use a in closed trailer, but getting it on the wall was something else! My shoulder is sore this morning. Getting it that high on the wall and lack of help , holding it by the horns dint work  . I ended up putting it on my shoulder and doing it my self

There you go much better. Nice mount and you have a great spot to hang it.

Nice!  I sure wish I had such a great spot for some heads. Good work and nice looking mount.

I was about a half mile from Idaho!  So you have a chance

Very nice and any elk like that one in my eyes is a trophy animal, it's something I'll never have the opportunity to save up for and hunt so very nice and I think it looks great !  One thing I always wonder in the elk world is kinda how old a animal is that ? I'll spare the "old enough to shoot" answer lol.

[sportfish]

OTC I'm not sure how old the elk was , I'd guess around 4 years old 

As far as cost and saving up , the hunt was on public land , about $1024 for the license, and about $600 in gas , food , beer and ice

Nice!  On my bucket list to shoot a bull.
