New WA State Record?

[MichaelJ]

You know what gives me the most pleasure?  Is that in a few years, when looking at the record books, what is going to be your first thought?  I know for damn sure mine is going to be "Man!  That was one legendary bull and I'm glad I got to be there for it all!"

It sure as HELL won't be "Man, that was one lucky SOB who put in a lot of miles and earned that bull!"

That bull will go down in the record books because of his awesome genetics and legend status, the "hunter" sure as hell won't be remembered and I'm sure most people won't even remember the dudes name....

A modern hunt in September in WA??

What a beast of an animal, thanks for sharing, that is unbelievable.

I think its great that he got it, who cares about the hunters orange. he could have taken it off for the pic I always do. The cool part is the genetics are in that area. I still cant believe it was shot in Washington.

I had several pics sent to me by one of the fellas early after the hunt.  I knew he had the opportunity to 'be there'.  Not sure it's right to take anything away from those that chose to participate in the experience.   Certainly won't hold it against the tag holder.  Helps create dreams for some of us   Probably should congratulate all for being there. Had to be a kick.  OK, I'd rather it had been me   Maybe I should start playing the lotto

Honestly thats my opinion too... I sure don't take anything away from the 'GUIDES' that participated in this hunt.  No DOUBT they worked THEIR ASS OFF to find this bull and even keep tabs on.  Hell I've lost bucks on a centralized WINTER RANGE from week to week.  For them to pin point this bulls movement is an accomplishment.  Am I goin to congradulate them?  Nope... but do I have less respect for them?  Hell no...  It all comes down to what the hunter wants, and if he wants to shoot a bull thats been 'sat' on, then he's going to do it.  No matter for the boys who located it.

Ya great bull. He and his small army beat out a 12 year old with muzzy tag.
Good job. More info on details of the "HUNT" to come out down the trail.

[saylean]

I guess technically, he was done hunting anyway...(about the hunter orange)...just playing devils advocate.

Nice bull...I would rather have the 65K though...

Just got home from a 5 day weekend at Sun Banks and had these pics sent to me by a friend, not sure if they have been posted somewhere else so I will delete it if someone replys. I guess the first couple are of the bull the day before. I guess they are calling it the BirdBath Bull

[MuleySniper]

I heard they were calling it the "Pocket Book Bull" That thing is a stud. Eat it up Utards!!!
