big bulls in the colockum

[Karl Blanchard]

Well I’m not sure he is willing to share what he’s been seeing, like trophyhunt said he might have a bull shot right out from under him and sold for jerky   

so he is willing to come on here and ask for help but then ghost everyone 

Well I know he’s been in contact with multiple forum members, myself included, and I can’t speak for him as it’s not my place to. Maybe he hasn’t been logging in and checking this thread. This tag can put a lot of pressure on a guy though. Even last year when I was on this same hunt with the tag holder, Ron, he was very relieved after shooting his bull. As if weights were lifted from his shoulders and I’m not saying it was relief for satisfying forum members but, just in general a guy can get stress and pressure because of the tag he’s holding in his pocket knowing it’s a one time thing.

I don't disagree. All I'm saying is year after year, dozens after dozens of guys come on this forum, ask for help, get help from generous forum members and then those tag holders never return to update the very people they asked for help. Personally I think it's a bit rude. Now I AM NOT saying that is what the OP is doing. Life does get busy and updating a chat forum is pretty low on the to do list. All I'm saying is at some point pop back in and say hi. If you can find the time to ask for help and correspond with members you can find a minute to update YOUR thread.

Make Huntwa great again! If I can update a thread from the side of a mountain on a February kodiak mountain goat hunt, then anyone can

Yeah I don’t disagree with you, everyone on the forum enjoys reading updated highlights of a guys hunt and not to mention pictures of a successful hunt!    I sure have enjoyed reading your hunts Karl

hey man I sure appreciate that. I post because I like to read others posts and I'd be a hypocrite if I expected others to but I didn't.

To the OP, whether you shoot a 404" 7x7 or a 206" 5x5 or even if you eat your tag, snap some pics, write a quick little blurb about your experience a d share it. We love it all. Success as well as failure. Though if you give it hell and leave it all on the mountain, then you did not fail. You have one of the best tags in the western United states. A huge bull still won't be easy but they are there for the taking. Enjoy every second of it!

not seeing many bulls? You are definitely not looking in the right spots then. See big bulls every time I go up.
