Do yourself a favor, give the elk a litte respect and shoot something bigger.
This reminds me of the time when we hunted the Upper Green River, and a friend of one of my cousins , was standing at the meat pole. We had 3 5pts, and a 6 pt hanging. He shot a 300, hit his bull 4 times before it all came to an end, the other bulls were shot once or twice by folks shooting 243's.
He was ragging on us 243 shooters about how we needed bigger guns.. Someone asked him, which elk was deader and which one was shot up the most?
