Shot me an Elk!
« on: December 15, 2006, 04:13:45 AM »
Got out for about 1.5 hours yesterday on the road bike.  Almost 50F here in Utah with the incoming front. 
Anyways, there is an Elk farm not far away, this time I had my new camera on me and shot some elk!

Poor defenceless little creatures.

Where can you buy elk meat then? Do they have a store on the premises or is it generally available in supermarkets in the US?
I do not like, when with me play, and I think that you also

Nice pics.  What caliber of EBC (Evil Black Camera) is best for elk?
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

I know Cabelas has it, and some local resturants around here sell it.  Otherwise, its pretty much a rarity afaik.

Shiny silver camera, Olympus 720 SW.....waterproof to 10 feet I'll test that next time I go trout fishing.

Goodness, Iain, don't tease us with such lofty dreams.  This ain't the wild west, pilgrim.  Smiley  You might find stand-alone butcher shops that stock it here in the States, but I doubt supermarkets have it even out west.
