Looks like a monster Roosevelt bull.  Gotta have the story on it if anyone knows where it is.

thanks for the background.  That is the pinnacle of washington elk hunting right there.  What a great bull.  I'd love to score that bull just for the joy of getting to spend some time with that rack!

Larry Mohler is a member's father. I think it is Cougkiller. That is a great bull, I remember seeing pics of it after he shot it in '91, I didn't know that they grew that big around here.
