Ed, very nice Elephant, the ivory looks heavy clear out to the tips. Where did you hit him with the 500 gr. Hornady, that had to rock him pretty good!

by the ear slit but to high,was to stupid to relies i didnt have my duffel bag on sticks and that would make bullet go higher,like a greenhorn i held as if i had it.wasnt supposed to even use the encore unless the shot would of been farther away.told the ph from the start i was going to use the opensighted handgun if close enough,comedy of errors.guess i had buck fever,at my age.hey nobodies fault but my own,we got it and it was a team effort,ive got the tusks,and the memories and thats that.
