I drew a tag here again in New Mexico for elk, not my first choice, but still get to go out

This is my bull with the bow from 2010, hard to top it:

That mount wouldn't even get through the door of my house, much less find a wall big enough to hang it! What a BEAST! Good shooting, especially with a bow!

Good thing that wasn't catch and release.... I would be scared to let go in fear of those horns thrashing me to a pulp.
