Run a rope over a nearby tree limb and pull the elk over using your pickup untill he’s beneath the limb. Tie a loop in the rope so that when it is suspended you can use the other end and tie it off to the tree. Tie the middle of the rope to your bumper, back up and suspend it. Use the free end to tie it up. Drive under it, lower it. Tie down and you’re done.

Having two trucks and a couple of 2x4’s makes it a lot easier. Use the 2x4’s to make a ramp into the bed of one truck. Use the other one to pull it in.

You killed Bambi !!

When my little sister was about two years old, my mom & dad took her to see Bambi. During one of the serious, sad parts, she stood up on her seat and declared, "We shooted him and hunged him up in our garage! Didn't we, Daddy?"

people in that situation instinctively aim at a point between the eyes. If shooting at an animal that is standing, then that is a good point. But if you are taller, aiming down, or the animal is laying down, the brain will be missed if you aim between the eyes. The brain sits behind the eyes, not between them. A better aim point is the center of an X with the corners being the opposite eyes and ear bases.

I had a circus around me.I did not want to do what I did but I felt I had no choice.I grew up on a dairy farm and were in many situations where things turned out that did not turn out as expected.I felt more compassion for that buck than anyone I have ever faced with a gun.After every shot that did not work,and I know I was accurate,I was mad at myself.Later after some thought,I became angry at the circus.All of the men who could of,and should of,man up did not.I saw Rifles in racks that could have taken one shot but no one had the hair to do it.The Buck was large.Rack of twelve.I am small.When I pulled him off the road,people were yelling to me that it would kill me.I could stand no more of it suffering.Thanks for the tip on how to kill it though.I figured it out.Unfortunately.

Marauding bear meets its match in woman, 87

Last Updated: Tuesday, June 26, 2007 | 4:37 PM NT

CBC News

“You know, a bear is something you can’t play with,” says 87-year-old Cecilia Smith, but last week, a bear on the Northern Peninsula learned that the Hawke’s Bay, N.L., woman wasn’t something to play with either.

Smith suspected that a bear was coming around her cabin. Concerned about the safety of herself and her property, she set a bear snare.

When she returned last week she found a 200-kilogram black bear waiting for her in the trap.

The longtime hunter, of everything from beaver and coyote to moose and caribou, immediately shot the bear.

Catching the bear was the easy part, she said. The real problem was getting the dead bear into the truck with the help of her 81-year-old husband.

“We tied a rope on it, and I couldn’t get it out, so I went up in a tree and I hooked it around some limbs on a big spruce there, and he backed the truck right in under the tree for me, and I lowered it down in the truck,” she explained.

Smith and her husband first told neighbours in Hawkes Bay that they’d grabbed the bear by its four paws and swung it into the truck.

“There’s people still think today that’s the way we loaded it,” she said.

Maybe after Ramos and Compean, the cop was afraid he’d get ten years added to the sentence.

Years ago an old friend of mine tackled and slit an injured doe’s throat with a swiss army knife. It had injured itself jumping over the concrete barriers in a highway construction zone.
