You could probably cut them steaks with the fork, real good eating there Dax. Is this a Montana Elk? Congrats to you and a nice clear picture too.

Daxter nothing wrong with getting a calf on an antlerless hunt. I have shot many a calf on antlerless hunts. Best elk meat ever. Also better than shooting the cow if you ask me. Congratulations on your first elk. I got my first muzz elk this year. Although I have taken many cows with my rifle, this year was my first for a muzz. It was also a calf. I have one more cow tag for rifle but I may use a muzzloader for fun.
 
I shot this guy in Northern Utah. I spent quite a while butchering him today even with the help of a neighbor who is a butcher for a living. I can't imagine the amount of work it would take to butcher a big old bull. We had some steaks for dinner tonight and they were great, real tender with a mild flavor.
 
I've shot valves before as well. A hell of alot easier to get out and the meat is out of this world. I have a late season anlerless tag in Colorado through the end of January and will try to hold out for a calf. Quality sure beats the hell out of quantity.
