God blessed me with a 5 x 5 elk last night. First hunt, 7 days, last day, last hunt, 20 minutes of legal light, 200 yards, 35 degree down angle. He moved 40 yards after being hit, and piled up.
Full story and pics in a day or so.

We left Pagosa Springs, CO at 730 Texas time. I got home 20 minutes ago. Still have to sort meat, unload, and get squared away. Hopefully I'll get pics up in a few hours.
