Free: Contests & Raffles.
I am impressed with that bull for sure. I am not a Debbie-downer but I am not envious. I envy those that draw a tag, scout themselves, and hunt insanely hard and kill a bull of this magnitude.

I envy those that draw a tag, scout themselves, and hunt insanely hard and kill a bull of this magnitude.If you had $3,000,000 that came in every year, would you feel the same way?BTW, he did draw a tag. I'm not a proponent of this style of hunting because I enjoy the nitty-gritty as much as anyone but what he did was legal and ethical, just not our style. When I have that kind of money, I will probably spend an exorbitant amount of money on raffles...I probably wouldn't hire mossback though.My views on HOW he killed the bull aren't related to money so I don't understand your question. Why would money make me hire a mob of Mossback idiots to track a bull for me just so I can shoot it? I am cool with him spending the money on the tag itself, getting the tag is the easy part if you have the money. I just cannot bring myself to ever pay a penny to someone to find me an animal. Especially a crooked crew like MOSSBACK. I see it as a waste to pay that much for a tag and not spend every waking second that you could trying to find that bull yourself. I just love that feeling at the end of the day that I did it, not someone else. Sure we all have buddies that help along the way on a tag but that is not the same. I wasn't at all down playing the bull or even hating on him for spending the money for the tag, I was just saying I am not envious of HIM. If I am going to ENVY someone, I will wait for that guy/gal that draws the tag, hunts hard, and kills a bull like that. Just not gonna envy him personally for that accomplishment
I don't claim to know the whole story but I'm 99% positive that there was not a whole crew of Mossback guys hired to track the bull. I'm 99% sure that there was not a soul from Utah here at all.
