Found 6x7 bull looking for shooter!!!! (Update)

My part in it wasn’t to steer it off course, just to have a discussion and every post bumps this to the top for more views.    I think it’s a cool post and I hope the tag holder capitalizes on it.

Oh yeah? You've seen this bull and know it was shot from 60+ yards?

Just because someone (like me) practices long distance shots, doesn't mean they are taking those shots on animals. Like I said, BIG assumption.

Hope the shooter is found, sounds like a great bull.

With people practicing at 60,70,80,90 and even 100 yards now they feel comfortable with longer shots and forget that if an animal takes one step it can make a good shot a terrible shot! Technology has made target shooting crazy good but technology can’t factor in real life  scenarios 

That's a big assumption.

I don't think he was making an assumption in this case.
  What he stated was right on point  though

  I stick by his comment.

Maybe posting what GMU it was in would help. 

[jstone]

Yep

[gotcha]

Lol. No thanks. I think people will know if they lost and shot an elk.

[NOCK NOCK]

You would think so, but maybe someone thought they missed.
What's the harm in stating the GMU, especially if you are serious about wanting to help find the shooter? 

If I was in your shoes, I would REALLY want to help a fellow hunter out. 

To each their own.

You could post a trail cam pic of bull.

Maybe Eastside or westside unit.

This is pretty much worthless without saying the "special draw" unit you found it ! Why not? It's a special draw and not a over the counter unit. 3-years of camera pics, why not include a pic?

There's a lot of draw units, and most are fairly large, so you're not giving away any special portion of the draw unit that you're only aware of.

And who would burn an unused elk tag to claim an elk they didnt shoot just for the head...

Very few people. But I guess if it was a quality tag, the season has ended and they don't have any plans on going late cow hunt.
I really don't see any issue with saying the gmu, or posting a pic of the bull; at least one or the other. I personally would prefer to do it that way instead of getting a PM from everybody who wounded a bull this archery season.

Nice offer regardless.
Very thoughtful.
I bet the hunter turns up.
