My cameras took pictures of a half dozen 4-6 pt bulls with the majority being 6.  In over a thousand pictures, not one of a spike bull. Looks it will be tough to find a spike.
Gathering is easy. Hunting is a challenge.

Spikes are there. It sounds like you located a mature bachelor bull sanctuary. Spikes tend to stay near their familiar areas the 1st year they get the boot, then as they mature and join older bulls to get away from cows & crowds.

Naches, tie him up to a sage brush for me, I'm on my way. :chuckle:
He's not anywhere close to sage brush.

Any luck yet? I have a friend with the same tag and only saw 4 cows yesterday.

Things will get more interesting come Saturday morning, once the hunters get there and start kicking the animals out of their hiding spots.  There are plenty of good bulls in Bethel, right now they are laying low after Archery, Muzzle-loader and Quality bull tags.

End up eating the tag? Here's a bull in an area I mentioned to look in.
