Posted: 10/19/2008 9:31:34 AM I wish Elk came in 100 lbs versions. The reason I never went hunting is that Elks the only game Ive tried that I truly like the taste of and Id prefer eating natural meat compared to hormone fed crap outa the grocery. However, Im lazy and that animal looks just too damn big to drag around cut up....it would be like trying to field dress a volkswagon. Maybe bunny rabbit sized Elk. Do all the same cuts apply to Elk as a steer? Like Filet, Ribeye.....Porterhouse? Anyways, I love posts like this......kinda lets you live it vicariously, Thanks!! The pic with the elk head in the back of the plane is funny as hell.....kinda like an eerie passenger.

Posted: 10/19/2008 11:53:13 AM Mark, you need to come elk hunting with me out here in CO. The first is my 2007 bull, the second in my 2008 bull. both taken with a .50 cal muzzleloader during muzzleloader season. I'm not far from greeley, actually used to head up there all the time when I was flight instructing! You would be even better off flying into Denver Metro (used to be called jeffco). Here they are: 2007: 2008:
