Elk butchering costs

Processing seems to be $250-$500 depending on how quickly you need it done, animal size and cuts. If I have any luck this year I am going to try the processing myself. Biggest hinderance to this is trying to get the meat frozen enough for a 36 hour trip home...dry ice definitely keeps it frozen...

Gear spreadsheet.

Whatever packing list helps me to not forget my satellite phone again is worth it...its almost cheaper to buy a new sat phone than overnight from PA to CO

Feedback on Bushnell and Stealth Cam trail cams

I have had positive experiences with the Stealthcam G Series. Easy to get up and running, dont seem to eat batteries, gets quality pictures. I have a few of the trailhawk cameras from Stealthcam and they are difficult to program compared to some of the other G Series.

First Elk Hunt

Hard to go wrong with Colorado, I started basically throwing a dart at a map and went from there. Biggest thing is to just start and dont put it off until next year.

Broadheads for Elk

Theres a lot of good podcasts that break down the different broadheads...for lack of resources I have just relied on what others tests have shown. I started out shooting the G5s and have killed elk/deer with them. Switched to Iron Wills v100s last year and had success on a bull with a frontal...

Packing out an elk

Pretty much what everyone else is saying, it always takes me 5 trips. Head always being the last trip. De-boning for me depends on how long and difficult the pack out is (steepness and deadfall).
