They dont get much bigger than that, and definetly a wild elk.  I'd say he was lucky, but I dont think that would be correct.

looks like one of the bulls, but maybe not one of the other bulls.

there's more giant bulls down there IMO but what do i know.

that's him alright... it's the same bull ifish is claiming came from the wenaha in oregon... which honestly wouldn't surprise me, it's a stones throw from where this bull was rumored to be hiding... oh, and it's not in 49 north... figured for 65k someone knew damn straight forsure exactly where this bull was and got a pretty penny to tie it down. not surprising in the least it was killed.. hell, im surprised it took em all 3 days! rookies!!! haha....puke!

it looks like the bull that the sheds from 2 springs ago were from..not this year's big bull sheds that were posted all over the world as the 451 bull... the stag-looking tops are the give away for me.


i'm looking for the shed pics from 2 springs ago.

In this context, there's no hunting skill involved in deep pockets, airplanes, and long range shots...may as well be a gopher in my mind.  It reduces the meaning of "hunting" when killing is made into a spectacle sport.  Hunting/trapping/fishing is a way of life, not a sport.  Never liked that term associated with hunting and never will...

I agree 110% and yet there are those on this site that will get upset and argue that this is indeed "hunting" just like the guy on ebay raising deer for release so some guy can pay loads to sit and wait for his buck to walk by thinking its finally out of a cage, they post websters definition of "hunting" and compare it to looking for the car keys, all the while defending actions like this. Well said Bow4elk!!!
LOL :'( :cryriver:
