2025 elk meat pole

[HunterGatherer]

Colorado 1st Rifle. Zero point unit. Opening morning. Guided my buddy for his first ever hunt. Told him he didn't suffer enough killing this beauty at first light on opening morning on his first ever hunt. Love the wave of the main beam after the 4ths.

Nice one ! I got one of my buddies into hunting and he killed in one day for his first 5 or 6 hunts. Most amazing beginners luck I have ever seen. Now, he has to work for it like the rest of us

A new baby boy put a limit on my time to hunt this year. I was thrilled to arrow this Idaho cow at 48 yards.

My best Wyoming bull to date, had a great hunt trying to get to the herd bull within a group of over 50 elk, we bumped several satellite bulls a couple times and thought we were done, but got up and went after them again and got into them. The most exhilarating 2 hours I’ve spent hunting in my life. No idea what he’ll score but he’s got some mass and length, 50.5” left beam, 53” right beam.

That’s a cool bull. I wouldn’t be to concerned with score, you’d probably be disappointed.

5th bull, first with a rifle and first in MT. Opening day. Hope everyone else had a good opener!
