New #1 Record Book Elk-Washington State
« on: March 22, 2024, 12:03:45 PM »
You’re looking at the new #1 Rocky Mountain archery elk in Washington State. Just finished the tremendous bull up and the owner gave permission to post him. For all this inquiring minds about his score- 404 5/8” Gross,
392 6/8” Net.
Pose is a modified downward look with a hard right turn. Extremely blessed to be able to work on this trophy. There a Timelapse video coming out soon on him being out on the form as well.

Bullblaster and I met Mr. Thorp a number of years back on a trail quite a ways back into a spot. Cool guy. Had some good stories. More impressive than his bull were some of the Idaho bucks that him and his brothers had taken over the years.

What a beautiful mount! Nice job! I wonder what it grossed? The left side appears to be bigger than the right so how many deductions did it get?

It’s a beautiful bull and great taxidermy work.


Let’s not jack the thread with record book banter. Start a new thread if it’s that important to you.
