Rich,

I think the fact that you took both bystanders as well as the wounded elk into account, and cycled through multiple scenarios before coming to your decision shows you did the best you could in your given situation. I fortunately have never been in such a situation, and don't know the thickness of an elk's head (only of mine, at times).
