After getting the game care completed; 61.2# meat complety free of bone, fat and silver skin - chunked Dutton meat, kept the backstraps and tenderloins separate. That'll go to the neighbor Cliffs processor in Wisconsin-
Guys, he had a mess made out of his Elk last year and its the best anyone has ever tasted, Chris, Cliff, Me, Mooch, My Cadet, mom, her campion, if you can its worth it.
... so after we finished up, I Went around today with my cadet and we filled the feeders and pulled cards.
Kinda nice to get a decent video of the buck, Dutton opening up a scrape on the other side of the property from where he died.
That's the first core buck I've really been able to target and have successfully hunted. So he's P&Y and a long way from B&C - I am hopeful that the following seasons will see more and bigger core bucks, with the grounds now dialed in and producing quality forage.

Dutton came in at 151 4/8 gross, lil more than guessed and 129 5/8 net little less than guessed.
