Only bull I’ve seen on the hoof or in the dirt approaching the 400 mark was the 398 bull we shot in Dayton back on 2006. 400 inch bull is s tough creature to find.

You’ve missed a few posted here in the last few years.

I have heard/seen of 2 bulls over 400"(411" & 415") taking a dirt nap this fall. One was the Gov Tag and the other an East Side Incentive Tag.

I would post pics but don't know how....

The incentive tag bull that I saw is a great bull but I don’t know how he would make 411 inches.

haha! Man I was wondering who the crazy dudes were chasing cows way back in there  :chuckle: hope you found them!

We dogged that big 7x7 all over hell. Had a 360 type 6x7 to the bow but let him walk. Hot day but man what action!

430 is a monster bull.  This fall, I have watched what I would consider an extremely large bull for our state and I still don't think he hits 400".  I am far from a scoring expert, so I could be wrong - maybe goes 4?!   As previously mentioned, that size is few and far between, so to hear 430... again, MONSTER bull.

Few north of 400 have hit the dirt so far. I haven't seen one that's way north of that mark though. There's a 450 down in the blues that's still alive as far as I know since the auction tag popped smoke on him and killed a giant typical 6pt. That's the rumor mill anyways (the 450 bull. The 6x6 is definitely real and definitely not alive  :chuckle:)

450.......    :yike: :yike: :yike:

I’ve seen two 400 inch bulls in the clock so far this year.  One typical, one not.  Curious

I’m talking about what you have personally seen in the field. Not what you have seen on a forum or what kind of pictures you have seen. 99.5% of elk hunters will never see a 400 inch bull elk on the hoof while out in the field in hunting.
