You are just beating around the bush, you wouldnt do it because its a life and death situation for yourself. Elk doesn't fight back just runs off so no worrIes for you. Wounded elk has adrenaline of grizzly when they get going thats why serious elk hunters that have killed many bypass even the 30 cal and shoot lapua. When i got elk tag im shooting lapuaAhhh the strawman argument.
I wouldn't go to Africa to hunt anything, no desire to travel halfway across the globe to hunt in a third world rat hole. Not to mention the have legal requirements.
But I'd gladly hunt anything in the great state of Wyoming with one.
