Great photo. The bases are enormous
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Give him a couple more years. Isn't that milk on his lips?  :yike:

A polite request would've been preferable. But, okay.

Thought other elk enthusiasts would appreciate the size of this bulls bases and the overall quality of his antlers as a whole.

I've seen and photographed a lot of bull elk. Lots! Never with bases like that though!

Conservative estimates. He's 350 easily. That, I know for sure. I know his spread is at a minimum 40". Main beams mid 50" and with pedicles that size ( they nearly touch ) his mass must be crazy!

Again, never seen a bull like that.

Nah dude don’t take that picture down! That’s an awesome bull and deserves to be appreciated.

I pulled mine too
Didn’t make sense to leave it without the original bigger bull

I don’t get the joke. Was a specific location provided or something?

Well sort of, the name says it all but really doesn't mean anything I guess. I didn't think they would take it down. I didn't realize they were new. Hopefully it gets reposted.

I guess I need to visit this forum more often to get accustomed to the satire.

Btw. My stomping grounds are typically between Liberty & Cabin Creek. Mostly the greater Teanaway area with several trail cameras out in the field. I'm a outdoors enthusiast and wildlife geek. I love fly fishing.

Yeaah, I thought my joke was obvious. Great bull! Can't wait to see the after pics. :tup:
