Man, that's a pity but still a nice elk.

But if I'm not mistaken another player and new forum user tries his luck in this competition too and it seems he shot a 349.923 with a heart shot last night. :cry:

That's actually what I expected to get the moment I started this hunt. I know my luck!
Shot 20+ Roosevelts in that session, all of them instant deaths with Snakebite and Pulsar. Only the 350+ Bull had to run off of course.
Ah well, moving on!
Thank you for the comp and congratulations to the two winners!

I wonder about the angle of the shot, because using .340, from 47 meters, and hit only one lung is... strange. :?

Anyway, as others said, a very nice bull! ;)

Thank you. There were five bulls, all of them walking right towards me. Actually wanted to take him with the Snakebite, but one of the other bulls had seen me, so I chose the Weatherby :p

Yes, it was your elk I was talking about in my post above. Really bad luck, I'm sorry.

No. Since I didn't state it in my original rules, I won't introduce it now. I simply forgot about it. But we all know: If you're spawn mashing, you're taking all the fun of hunting away from yourself! ;) :P
