Think these elk sheds are from the same bull?
« on: June 27, 2012, 09:03:58 PM »
Found these over a four year period and within a few miles of each other.  Looks like the same bull but maybe not.

Shoot me the GPS coordinates where you got them, and Ill be able to do a little more research and tell you for sure.

That is a pig-bull for sure.       :tup:

Could be.   Lick the burr on each of them and see if they taste the same.  Then you will know.

I found these all within close distance and 1 each year 3 out fo 4 years hiking.  Dan-o the coordinates to find the other side are N 47° 36' 23.6514", W 122° 19' 54.48

If anyone finds the other side near here let me know!

Those are cool and unbelievable similar, but what are you doing giving the coordinates to c-post?  You are going to ruin it for the rest of us that frequent c-post, now all we have left is notellum ridge. :chuckle:
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

I'd say 2 years of him and possibly an off-spring? :dunno:  Don't listen to dan-o, give me the actual coordinates and I'll go in there and find out for sure through my thorough and very detailed investigations. :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
