I'm just wondering if anybody else noticed the lack of fat on any dead bull elk this year.
I was involved with 3 elk hunts this year (early rifle, general muzz, and late rifle) all in different areas of the state. I helped skin all three bulls that were taken and was surprised that not a single one had an ounce of fat on him (they appeared healthy, otherwise).
I realize that this is a very small sample size, but wanted to elicite feedback from other members. I'm used to seeing Utah bulls with at least an inch or two of that yellow fat on their rump and down their back.
