How far did the bull travel after the first shot?
One whole GMU.

I'd like to know what everyone would do if they were in a similar situation? Would u fight it? What happened to innocent until proven guilty? To me it sounds like they made an attempt to do it legally. Was it intentional or un intentional?

How many people on this thread harvested an elk last year. I'm thinking most of you guys are just internet jockey s who like hunters to get black eyes in media. My question is for JD and tennawayslayer and davemonti when's the last time you guys shot an elk?

Exactly most of these guys pumped hunters are getting a bad rap. Hunters need to unite and stand up for one another. I'm pretty sure these s a few anti s on here stiring the pot.

I wouldn't shoot a tame bull, and I wouldn't violate clearly written rules to kill an elk. So I would never be in "that" situation.

I'm going three years strong with legally harvested elk. But why does that matter. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. They shouldn't be labeled internet jockeys. I thinking your painting with a broad brush.

I wouldn't put myself in that situation to begin with. I'd read the reg's, see the unit was off limits to me(It's clear as daylight that the GMU is closed to branch antlered bulls. There's nothing confusing or misleading at all about it) and hunt somewhere else.

I don't stand up for any hunters who kill elk or anything else illegally.

" 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

And just a note, just because you kill something, or buy an animal it doesn't make you a "Hunter".

two years ago with my peaches tag. I have had a cow tag for the past three seasons and have chose to help other people on there hunts instead of harvesting an elk myself. I have a buddy who has one of the most desired rut tags in the state in the state this year. So I will eat another cow tag  :chuckle: Not that I owe you an explanation. But there it is.

So you only actually hunt elk when you draw bull/quality tag. Explains why you are so jealous of TR. also I think TR s lawyer needs to look into see if any of the landowners in 334 have bull nuisance tags. I know one guy who gets 5 bull tags a year.

Does in my book. Same thing with fishing if you aren't catching it's just a boat ride.
