Rule number 1 about Bull club is you don't talk about Bull club.

What time of the day was this bull shot?

[Tbar]

This is a great bull.  Well known to the community and according to at least one resident pretty domesticated to humans.

  Its been fed by residents for years and is well known to the area.  I'm not part of the cool kid group that has seen the pic but I have seen this bull trough the years on the hoof.  The hunter was patient waited for years until the bull was at the peak of its growth before tagging it.  Beautiful bull! no harm done!!! all of us would have put our tag on it even if we were using the heat pump unit on the corner of our house as the blind

I can personally guarantee this bull was not feed by locals and lived by no houses. The only way people would ever see this bull is if the were trespassing or owned the property surrounding the area. This bull NEVER went by road or houses. The bull was very wary of humans, if he wasn't,  he would have died last year when he was much bigger. The hunter that killed this amazing animal spent the last few years watching this animals every move and hunted him hard. It couldn't have happened to a more deserving man!

This thread is driving me nuts. I like the idea the guy had about starting the new thread about this picture less 200+ inch buck killed in the Alpine lakes. Let’s start that one that way I can keep opening that one all day long every time it jumps back to the top hoping the picture will finally be there.
Anyways happy for the guy who got it but seriously tired of reading about it without being able to see the darn picture.

Does he know his secret is not and half the guys on here have seen the pic?  If he’s saving it for a publication, that’s cool.  When I started the thread I didn’t realize it was a secret.

In true Hunt-WA fashion, a thread about a bull getting killed where no pics will be posted will generate twice the amount of replies than the next successful hunter who’ll actually post photos.  This place cracks me up

He's aware that the words out. He has many reasons why he wants to save it for now. But like Jackalope mentioned, nice animals should never hit the net. Especially locations! The only thing this thread will do for the hunter and the elk is poaching, trespassing, belittling the hunter and his animal, and many other negative things.
All the hunter wants is to enjoy his animal in piece with family and friends. And keep the elk he loves so much protected!
In time it will be published and everyone will have their opportunity to see it. Only a hand full of people were there for pics, the loud mouth will be figured out. I have the utmost respect for my friend for not putting all over the net. I hope the herd continues to grow and spread so many more hunters will get opportunities to harvest elk. But for now the herd needs protection and the hunter needs privacy.

Just to clarify, I'm all for sharing photos of animals. I'm not all for sharing the locations of live, vulnerable, etc. animals when it could lead to poaching or any other ill will. Someone shot a blacktail buck in someone's front yard a few years ago off of Big Rock and there was a deer running around earlier this year with an arrow sticking out of it. There's issues with poaching and I don't know what you'd call it...thrill killing or something like that out there in the valley.

Pretty sure it's a different bull than what you're thinking it is.

Not putting it on the net is admirable but it will be published in time and everyone  will have a chance to see it? Sounds like it should remain secret. 

Strikes me as noble!  Sorry, couldn’t help it...
