There was a few hundred elk up on that butte the other day.
I believe there's a mineral that area is lacking in the feed which leads to brittle antlers. It's probably also due to them always being in the sun, and the WGFD managing that area for bull quantity. It may as well be a bunch of dudes in a bar fighting over one girl. I think it all adds up to busted antlers, as 99% of the bulls out there are that way.

It's a unique hunt, regardless. Glad you got to experience it.
I'm glad I got to experience it too, just wish I'd get another crack at it, but that's very unlikely.
