My son Mitch saw 30 head of elk on some of my wifes property last Thursday night, a day and a half prior to Cascade elk season. I have an Eastern Oregon tag but could have exchanged it for a Cascade tag. The herd consisted on 6 bulls, 4 spikes, the 5x5 and from what I'm told a huge 6x7. The whole herd was there yesterday evening but the young man, a friend of Mitch's son had never killed a deer or elk so he took the 5x5 which was closer. I'm very happy for the young man. Don't have permission to post picture of the young man so I blotted him out.

Pretty nice bull for your first. I've killed a few elk and I would've been happy to throw my tag on it! Congratulations to that young man.
 
Congratulations to the young man. He can assuredly be pleased with such a fine specimen for his first big game animal.

And you got him out while, a perfect hunt.

I've never been that lucky myself. Hope he doesn't think all elk hunts go this easy. :lol:
