Was hopping for elk steaks but these will do.

Dad had a muzzleloader cow tag that needed to be filled.  Handcap so I get to be designated shooter.  Spent 3 days in the woods and nothing.  Today we spotted a bull but we can't shoot a bull.  So we drove around a bit more and found a few chanterelle mushrooms. Then we found another heard of elk.  Prefect  broadside shot. Pull the trigger and nothing.   All that work for a miss fire.  Quickly get another cap and run up the road.  There they are.  Fire and forgot to factor in my fun was sighted in for 100 yards not 40 and missed her.  So to the grocery store I go.  I get my tag for jan so hopefully we will have some elk then. 








Couldn't find plates so we are eating out of a bowl. 





Good steak

Hey, at least it was a day out with Pop. Great dinner and I'm sure a few laughs were shared over the miss fire.  ;D

Wow, what can I say?  First, that closeup pic of the steak made me weak in the knees, then the last pic with the steak & chanterelles made me weep.  Very nice!

Tough luck with the misfire and shot, but you didn't come home empty handed. Nice looking meal!  Good luck next time.

Well said! Add that to the day and the company, it might not get any better than that. Good for you!
