When I first saw the picture I wondered if it was a hoax.  I remember a few years ago a semi taking out a whole herd of elk.

What a dandy, hope they do something good with the horns, maybe WDFW will get them mounted and put in the regional office, they do things like that pretty often. :tup:

We saw one of his off spring last year thats a real up and comer . Those bulls can grow up because there is just so much private sanctuary for them .. I'm ok with that since the gene pool benefits . amazing what can happen here in wa if a bull can grow between 7 and 10  years old .  Sorry for You Dave I know you have history with him .... I hope the rmef benifits from that amazing bull. The game department allready has 7/10 huge road kill and dead heads they dont need another .

Wow. What an amazing animal. I remember seeing some nice Bulls up there over 20 years ago before the resort took over. Obviously those genes were carried on and then some.

Yep, RMEF will end up with the antlers and the cape.

That's good news.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

This is a good average bull, I see bulls like this all the time where I hunt.

 :peep:

I am glad to see the RMEF will have the antlers/cape.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.
