Just wanted to show the rack on this thing, I got to finish my elk from 2007 today.. So does anyone have any idea why it would grow like this?

Maybe he just prefers to sleep on that side.

Must have got him in Ellensburg

Trees all grow that way, why not velvet. LOL

LOL was way way away from Ellensburg, just to hot over there for me. I would be hunting like a 3 toed slouth/ sleath/ slath or however it is spelled!!!

Any chance that's a toutle bull?

BLKBEARKLR · « **Reply #11 on:** May 19, 2009, 07:58:30 PM »

Wild Bill not a toutle bull, but I have seen some in that area with the same kind of rack

Hey I like your work, you've done a really good job on this. How much does it cost to do an elk like this? I was also wondering if it costs extra to have it bugling? What is your turn around time on doing an elk?

BLKBEARKLR · « **Reply #13 on:** September 05, 2009, 02:29:08 PM »

Thanks for the compliment

On elk I charge 700+. The only time that I charge over the 700.00 if someone brings in a monster bull that will need a lot of modifications to the form to make it fit correctly.

My biggest bull so far that I have done was a nice size 5x5 and I still only charged the 700.

I do charge extra for bugling. It is an additional 100.00 for a bugling bull.

My turn around time is always less than a year, unless there is a sickness in the family or a natural disaster.

If you look at my website, there is a link below you can see some of the other work that I have done.

Thank You
Joe

Just a guess, but I would imagine that bull had a wound or injury to a leg while the antlers were growing. Usually it's the opposite side of the funky antler. I've seen a lot of bulls harvested that seem to have something wrong with a leg (old bullet injury, embedded broad head, hoof injury) and their rack is not even.
