Ummmmm governors tag,, do a search here, it was well covered for weeks.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

there's like 84 or 85 threads on here...look in the elk forum around sept/october i think of last year.
buckle up though, and don't dredge any of the back up....leave them lie where they are.

I thought that the gov. tag bull scored closer to the mid 400's than that. That was the one from the Blues, right?

my prediction is that the old threads won't have to be dredged back up...i bet this one works just fine.

i think that gov tag bull netted that...grossed higher.

It grossed like 446-9 and netted in the 430's, like 434. I didnt read anything on a 416 bull shot in Washington, I could have missed it if it was a short article?

It's not the governor's tag.  The hunter's name was Kevin Fields.  The brief story only has a couple pics and does not mention what part of the state the elk was taken in.  The story is the second to last page of the new issue.

Still waiting for my May/Jun EBJ, must be in that one.  I think that elk looks familiar.  I'll have to shoot a pic around to the guys in my elk camp and ask if they've seen it.  I judged the bull I am thinking of at about 380, but I didn't get a lot of time to look.
That's one helluva bull.
