My next door neighbor just got back today from his LEH hunt at Nakusp.

He doesn't like publicity or posting photos but he showed me his 7x8 elk rack that green scores 372.

So, a nice picture of the rack on the lawn by itself would be okay???:smile:

This is the elk, Mike (the hunter) said the guy at Nelson green scored it at 372 GROSS and there's a fair number of deductions looks like to me. Still pretty nice elk.

Hope he's got a good taxidermist. That cape looks just a tad short:smile:.

Now that's the kind of bull I had high hopes for:cool:!

I took an East Kootenay bull couple of years ago with the 4 point cluster on top...

Just a tad.....I was a little confused by his cape care technique as well.....???? Says his house is too small for an elk mount, he's going for a European mount, I think his ceiling will still be too low.
