Elk Sculpture-Buddies elk

Working full time in bronze sculptures. My buddy killed a Big Bull in New Mexico and I did a close match to the antlers on a Bull I had already done. The Bull is called "Rut Strut" and based on a bull who was strutting around his cows me bow clutched in my hand 20 yards away. The wind shifted and you know the rest of the story so I decided to do a sculpture of him. The way the process works I can do his antler in wax and make the match. those top tines are not broken but naturally blunted.... Lots of fun to do

Deer my buddy has taken some big bulls and some with bigger antlers these are about 350 but he said the body was ginormous an absolute giant animal...he regretted no shooing it out of the wallow while it was alive saying it was a slippery muddy nightmare
