Trophy Elk Article in todays Olympian
« on: November 05, 2008, 02:57:52 PM »
Here's an article in todays paper that should get some interesting comments. My stance is public land, fair chase. As for a governors tag unfortunetly I don't see myself having enough disposeable cash in the near future for it to be an issue in my life. It's enough to pull together enough cash each year for all the special permit hunts on time.

Yea, IMO these animals should not eligable for the record books.  Really a disservice to the sport of hunting.  For those of you interested I believe this is a picture of this animal.

I believe that the pic that Dameion posted is of a high fence bull on someone's farm. You can see the fence through the trees.
