Elk Rumors

That looks more like the bull that was just killed. 

[yelp]

here is the comparison view

[yelp]

That means the 451 is still alive!

[wrangler]

looks like he regressed a little... only 440 now.... seems the sorry sob was only in state 2 days.

[wrangler]

yelp. i believe thats the same bull. the sheds are from 2 separate years. 07 and 08.

[yelp]

sure wrangler take away the little bit of hope I had.

[Ridgerunner]

very impressive bull killed under circumstances that aren't what hunting is all about, yet what hunting is coming too.

[jackelope]

2 different bulls wrangler.
the 451 bull from '08 is a different bull from the '07 sheds you posted that i was looking for.
there's also pic's on here somewhere of a real big typical 7x7 the same guy picked up that is another different bull.

Didn't this cost him more like $130K since he bought the tag 2 yrs in a row to nail this bull?  At least I thought it was the same dude.  

Looks like WA is in the game of selling big bulls now.  How long untill we see a pic with a team of guys in pink T shirts or something?  I wonder if this guy had a bunch of guys camping on this bull all summer for him?

i knew about the 7x7, which was a seperate bull. i was sure the 2 sets of non-typical sheds we've posted were the same bull...? either way, this bulls fate was sealed the minute his sheds hit the mm board last year. welcome to the internet revolution! what a joke.

[wastickslinger]

Wrangler I do not think his fate was sealed by pictures being posted on MM (although I do agree it was unneccessary). That tag was already bought. It was only a matter of time before a little greed and commercialism sealed the fate of this bull.

Somebody posted a thread on here last spring I thought that said the Gov. tag went for around $170,000.00 this year, by Agnew, and Richert paid $65,000.00 in 07' Either way, thats a hellava bull, and those SE tags just got alot harder to draw!!

[jackelope]

07 gov tag went for 47k, and this year went for 66k.

I hope that money goes to a good cause because for some reason I'm kinda getting a sick feeling about the whole deal maybe it's the fact that this thread started with "he flew in on a private jet"
