I know its late notice, but my dads friend got an elk, and he wants a meat grinder, and fast! So I may be taking a road trip out to Cabelas tomorrow in Nebraska, anyone want to go with? I'll have room if you dont want to drive. I'm not going for certain, have to call to make sure they have t first.

I would like to go, but I've been sick the last few days. If I'm feeling decent, I'm going to try to be the first one at Best Buy in the morning to exchange a gift for a different model, then come back home and sleep.

Walker, thanks for the info, I'd neve rbeen to Gander Mountain before, pretty neat place though. They had exactly what my dad was looking for... about $45 more then Cabelas, but by the time you factor in gas to get there, probably saved a bit of money! Thanks for the tip!
Ended up getting a 1.5hp, 15-lb/minute grinder, real nice one.
So, I didn't go to Cabelas... which is fine, because I have no money to spend there anyway LOL.

Jake, you'd have been so proud. Picture this.
Christmas Day.
Snow on the ground.
A dead elk, on a tarp, getting skinned, gutted, and cleaned in the front yard while horrified neighbors look on.
Kids imagine Rudolph has been shot.
Snow is bloody.
Magpies love it.
LOL.

INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW MATT... CONSIDERING THAT IT'S COMFORTABLY OUTSIDE OF HUNTING SEASON, EXCTLY WHICH VEHICLE TOOK THE DAMAGE, AND HOW BAD WAS IT? WERE YOU ABLE TO SALVAGE HALF OF THE ELK?

I'm sure it could have been a late-rifle permit. Some of them go until something like the 10th or 14th of January.

I'm not sure what the permit was for, but I know that they had a tag for it, and they are going up hunting again in a few days, they have a tag for another elk.
