Once you eat good Elk you will never say that about venison again!

Elk out west ever year-rifle.
Deer - archery
Turkeys when I can- I just walk around with a shotgun and hope I see one. More about hooved hunting

Deer is to Elk what Elk is to Moose-
Moose is the best meat I have ever eaten- hands down. 100x better than wagu beef

.308 works for me on everything from Deer to Moose.
For moose I used a 180grain Nosler Accubond
Elk I stick with a 165 grain
Deer a little lighter bullet
I love the versatility of .308- 30-06 does the trick also- .300 win is big for deer and it would blow an Antelope up

Teton is incredible also if you are headed that way- I lived and worked in both Parks a few seasons right outta school. Amazing place- fell in love with big mountains and never looked back!!

We have a local farm just outside of town. They sell it at the Farmer’s Market in the summer. Tastes pretty good, better than that pre-packaged dried-out stuff from the supermarket. I don’t imagine the protein content is any higher or lower than any other Bovine, but it’s very lean (but juicy nonetheless).
Last summer I paid $18 a pound for tenderloins and ribeyes. About the same as good beef.
They claim it’s "organic and grass-fed, " but what does that really mean?

I’ve had elk, it is delicious, however it’s not native to Iowa. I’m limited to what I can shoot within the confines of my own state for now, maybe in a few more years when the middle daughter is done with college and our youngest daughter is in college I can think about doing some big game hunts in other states. I have a brother in law that lives in the twin cities, he goes into northern Minnesota close to the Canadian border to hunt white tails, some day I would love to hunt up there with him!

I have been interested in trying elk ,deer, and moose for awhile I just heard about this beefalo the other day so im interested in that also im so jealous of you guys that have the ability to hunt. I will have to make a vacation out of it in the future. Ive hunted other animals but ive never gotten anything big like an elk or moose.

Agreed- deer in Michigan that eat soy corn and tomato all day are way better than Arizona whitetail eating sage and cactus…

Elk should be repopulated in a handful of states just to promote hunting- game and fish make so much on out of state hunters
