Yes elk are really tough animals. I heard of a bull shot that had a round ball in his hind and broadhead in his shoulder!

Shot my 6x6 elk in Wyoming this fall and noticed that he was blind in his right eye from a fight... so I thought. When I got back home the taxidermist called me and asked if I wanted it scored for P&Y! I told him I would love to but I shot it with a rifle. He then asked what that muzzie broadhead and 3" arrow shaft was doing in it's eye??? Yup, an archery hunter is either a very good shot or shouldn't be taking a head on shot at any elk!! I was thankful that I could harvest the elk to take him out of his misery and the broadhead in the eye of the skull mount is an interesting talking point.
