Trinchera Trophy – Bugling Bull Elk
17H x 19″L x 9″W – Edition of 48
With three brothers and a dad that all hunt, I was raised on elk meat. I’m probably half elk, haha.
I think the biggest bull my Daddy ever shot measured 356. Opening day of elk season, Dad and the
three brothers would head off to the hills and usually by ten that morning, we had at least one bull
in the barn. I would run out when the vehicle pulled in… the elk was usually still warm. I won’t
lie, it always made me sad for their death, I am an animal lover at heart. But I am also a
carnivore… so in short order, I was in the barn, helping skin the elk and inspecting every part
that came off the carcass, especially the head and legs/hooves. It fascinated me. I still drag
animal parts home, they are strung around my shop and are very useful for hands-on reference during
sculpting projects.
