Thank you.I shot her at about 8am, and the other one was shot in the same place at about 8:05am. We didn't get them both back to the truck until 5pm. It was a very long day.
Both elk were shot at approximately 35 yards. I have a video of me taking the one pictured, but it's long and boring and you can hardly see anything due to the wide lens on the GoPro. Shot placements were excellent. Neither animal knew what happened and just laid down within steps of impact. No make up shots required. From the time that I turn on the camera, I could see game the entire time and patiently waited for the best opportunity. Shot occurs exactly 11 minutes into the video with an available shot on one of the four animals visible almost the entire time. I think we got very lucky and don't expect to come across an opportunity like that ever again.

Got a cow, she looks just like Irvings!
45 yards, ran downhill and expired in a smal drainage. Back straps are already cut into steaks and in the freezer, the rest is at the processor getting specialty products and more steaks as I have about 600lbs of burger and a bit of steaks from my bison I took in February.
i got my buddy a shot with his muzzleloader at a 4x4 bull but he whiffed for the third time in a row but this time he got 2 trees, so that's an improvement.
now just waiting for waterfowl and pheasants and my deer tag in December.
Our group had one missed shot at another cow (buck fever), and I want to say four missed shots at some bucks? I felt like a sharp shooter, but at only 35 yards, I pretty much couldn't screw it up. Some of those shots at deer were over 200 yards with a muzzle loader, which seems outside of my own skills.
What is the furthest any of you have taken game with a muzzle loader?
Went to southeast Kansas again this year. Opening day got this un.
Very nice, do the tines count to make him a 6x6?
Thanks. 15 scoreable points.
Had to count again. Very sweet. My shoulder mount from last year will be coming home in about a month. You getting this one mounted?
Yes. I got mine back from last year also. It turned out awesome in full velvet.
