I like to fill the freezer with a 2-3 year old dry cow elk. Big enough to yield well, young enough to eat good, and not stressed by nursing. I've yet to eat an antler...

 

Oh, don't talk to me about elk! I found out on the internet that male elk have sex up to 8,9,10 times a day, often with that many different partners. And here I joined the damn Moose Lodge!!!

 

Lmao!

 

It doesn't pay to get too close to a bull elk during the rut. If it moves, they want to hump it or kill it -- and I ain't quite sure which would be worse.

That's a helluva trade-off. On the one hand the ladies have much longer legs, but on the other they all have faces like Walter Matthau...
