The elk/Animal deserve better to be honest with you.

Can’t be any less humane than an arrow. Much more energy than one besides for whatever that’s worth. Dead is dead. Go back and re-read the OP. Most shots will be at archery ranges.

And almost all of us hunt elk for sport. Using a specialty weapon for a specialty hunt only makes sense.

Dead IS dead, but dead can be a mile or two from where you shot the animal. There are several accomplished elk hunters on this thread telling you your idea sucks. It would behoove you to heed their advice.
