    Prime Rib Roasts

    City market is at $5.99 I think with the digital coupon this week Jim. I got 30lbs to split for Christmas for my kids. Plus I also had a 20% employee coupon and we had a 1 day 5% senior coupon. Lol Anyway with all the discounts I ended up paying about $90 for the 30lbs.

    The Annual Elk Success Thread!!!! 2023

    Last day of 4th season yesterday. Just a little one but haven't killed an elk in over 10 years. Found out I'm not in shape to carry one out alone anymore either. Thank God I was able to get a message out to my son from on top of the hill. Was still an all day job.

    My total cost of this hunt with airfare, tips and all animals hunted was right at 6k per person. I just got an add from an outfitter I know in Texas for a 2 day hunt for 1 wildebeest at 10k.

    I shot both Pigs at about 40 yards btw. One double lung that went about 75 yards and the other quartering to me that broke the one shoulder and excited the other side. He went about 30 yards

    We didn't eat any of our own animals. Like yours they went to market other than 1 whole hartabeest and the guinea fowl being given to our trackers. We did get to eat streaks from roan and Sable while we were there though. Along with some Sable sausage. Although it was all very good meat...

    This was supposed to be a one and done hunt but can say with certainty that another will happen. Likely in 2026 but with different animals. I could have taken a kudu this time but wasn't prepared financially for any more extras. Next time will use the same outfitter but in a different area.
