Did anyone get a bull in Hancock Kapowsin this year? I never heard of anything.

[hunterrcc]

Just curious if anyone shot a bull this year in Hancock?  Never heard or saw any thing beside the one guy that was muzzleloading that didn't get one looking for a big boy.  Anyone know anyone that drew the tag?  Just curious hoping that one day I draw a tag in there!

I hunted with a guy this year who's friend was drawn and picked the rifle hunt. He killed a pig of a bull, I would guess around 380'' but only got one photo. I can't post it though, sorry. I'm sure I'll get some crap for even saying this but it's true.

I know of one smokepole bull (5x5) and a rifle (6x8) pig that the 5x5 guy shot and didn't find him. i think there was another monster posted on here last month?? everybody wishes they could get drawn someday in there. hell i saw saturday off the 13rd 4 bulls, got a nice BT doe with my bow that day also.

I heard of a 5x that was very good.... But that's it.. No pic or anything that I was shown... With a muzzy...

My hunting partners bull he got. 5x7. 630 yards. He told me to post this.

Dates are wrong, taken last year

[fillthefreezer]

I have a trail cam pic of a bull from Kapowsin I guessed to be close to 380. Would be interesting to know if its the same bull trophyhunt's friend killed. Near as I could tell it was a 7x8 but the picture isn't great.

That 5x7 is a gorgeous bull.

[hunterrcc]

Awesome bull there.  I understand totally about the big bull pictures.  Just curious usually you see or hear more about them.  Hopefully one of us gets the tag this year!!!  There are some damn nice bulls in there.  Good to hear.

Don't they only give out 6 quality bull tags total for Hancock each year? and during the hunt gates are closed to all but the Lucky hunters?

[elkhunter107]

  steeliedrew, the gates are pretty much locked down sept-nov for all elk seasons for the permit folks.

They also draw 6 tags for the employees, which is a much, much smaller pool to draw from. Wish I had a part time job there!!! Like I said earlier, they should give out more elk tags.

[krapmit]

Yes, I know someone who gets the employee tag every year.

[trophyhunt]

Yes, I know someone who gets the employee tag every year.

Is his name Andy??

[krapmit]

No, but the guy I'm talking about killed like a 320 bull in there this year, that has not been posted or talked about on here.  I don't think there were any 360+ bulls taken this year
wer there?

[rose673]

You don't even need to work at Hancock to actually get drawn as well, if your spouse works there, they can get drawn and have their other half hunt in there.  I know thats happened a couple times. 

Just wish there were more tags, so I could get a shot and not have to envy the other lucky hunters!   

[hunterrcc]

Anyone been in Hancock today or can see the snow level in there.  The news snow report changes every day.  Just curious how far down the snow is if any.  Going in there tomorrow for late deer.  Hope to find a nice buck!  Sure wished I had a job in there!!! would be nice to draw elk tags all the time!!!

Yes there was a big bull taken this year, I wish he would post it but it should score around 380 is my guess.

[fillthefreezer]

saw pics of a "as told to me" hancock bull. should be about 380.. the pics i saw look like its in a small walk-in with a guy in a sweatshirt

[Swatson]

When I dropped my deer off at a local taxerdermist he had a bull in their pushin 370/380 that was a "local bull".  Shoulda snuck a quick pic!  I have no doubt it came out of there!

[nailbender]

I think they should have a disabled or a youth hunt draw
