He Got One!

Jake had the chance to go Elk hunting this year. His tag was only for a spike (for us non-hunters, that means and yearling elk with one spike), but he was still very excited. The hunt only lasted for a couple of weeks and he took every opportunity he had to go. On the last day of the hunt, he got one! Luckily he shot it at the bottom of the canyon, about 100 yards away from a 4-wheeler trail, so he didn't have to drag it too far. I know it might be strange to most of you, but we actually love venison at our house. I'm not sure if it's just the way Jake prepares it, but "YUM!" And it's much more lean and better for you than beef so that's a plus. So now we've got plenty in the freezer for roasts and steaks!
