Possible record bull?

[7mmBuckley]

I’ve been thinking for several days now how to respond to a lot of comments on here. This was a free range bull for one. No high fence. The bull is harvested. Everyone is in awe of such a bull. A day later the whitefoots start showing pictures of this bull in a driveway, in someone’s yard etc. it’s crazy when the natives kill a huge bull or any bull for that matter and the a average hunter who can’t draw a tag does nothing but bash natives. Then we have a guy who buys a tag and kills a new world record legally. Then the natives bitch and complain showing pictures of the bull around houses and private property. Now turning hunters against hunters. Makes me sick! These animals summer in the mountains and winter closer to town. What blows me away even more is guys on here saying there’s no way they would kill this bull. I call out anyone of you that say you would not kill this bull if it were you had a tag and it were legal! The fact of the matter is no one involved in this hunt owes any of you a story of how the hunt went down. This is an incredible animal and it should be celebrated as such. Like I’ve said before hunters our are worst enemy!  Keep the hate alive guys! Great job!

You must have not seen the posts from the hunters kid where he went on and on about his dad being the best elk hunter ever. Saying he has been hunting this bull since September and been watching it for a few years. The problem I have is I don’t care how or where he killed the Bull BUT don’t make a story up to make it look like it was. DIY tough hunt when this Bull has been fed apples and alfalfa since the rut. If family n friends didn’t brag about such a hard hunt myself as well as others would tip our hat BUT this is a pretty well known Bull and a ton of locals knew where the Bull was and it was shot on the last day with a bow. This hunter should know by now to keep any of his stories quiet because a ton of people will bitch because of jealousy. Just like you calling out the Whitefoots!! I don’t agree with some of the rights that natives have BUT as far as I know the Whitefoots have never been charged with Poaching an animal. Don’t blame the player blame the GAME!!

Reading this thread is just another reminder why I would NEVER post any pics of myself in a public place and have never understood why others do so. Even when I’m driving around with an animal in the back of my truck after a successful trip, I’ll go out of my way to cover it up as best I can. I wouldn’t care if it’s a dink or a b&c bull, the last thing I want to do is advertise it. Always cringe whenever I see someone driving down the freeway with an animal strapped to the top of the truck bed or in the back of an open trailer.

If I were ever fortunate enough to shoot a bull of that caliber, I can guarantee you would not see it any public place. There’s just no benefit.

Sure, I’ll take pictures, but those are only sent to a very select group of friends and family. I have no problem letting other people see pics…but only on my phone.

Way to paint with a broad brush teanawayslayer.  As well as attempt to deflect more than others have already done.  The whole ordeal smells weird,  legal or not,  it's weird. I have seen zero natives bashing on here but may have missed something. If not you're relishing the Facebook drama and bringing it here as others have done the last few days.

It's wild to me that a post like this will go 17 + pages of comments, yet a youth that kills their first deer or elk will get less than 3 pages of congrats and praise.   

That is one hell of a bull and as long as it was killed legally......congrats to the hunter.

I was blessed with holding and admiring this bull tonight! Truly the king of the mountain! Congrats Casey and to good friends to help make this happen!

Hey guys, Teanawayslayer appears to know the guy and has been very defensive of anything negative said about this bull from day one of this being on this forum. Challenging him and what he says isn’t going to make a difference.

I could be wrong, but I think what has most people throwing shade is because of the first social media post that put out for folks to see.  It was put out by the hunters son, and was highly misleading. That's why you see all the post congratulating the hunter in the first couple days after the post, then as different pictures of the bull start to show you can see the change in the tone of peoples comments.

The Whitfoots can, and have done what they want. They will never be charged with poaching.

Unless is very clearly back and white this type of controversy will always pop up on new records.  This is actually kinda minor compared to the controversy around the spidey bull. Personally beleive the spidey bull deserves the controversy around it.

blah blah blah. I have no skin in the game. I know people who were involved and this hunt was on the up and up. Your right I don’t give a *censored* about your opinion😁

Hey guys, I think Teanawayslayer is secretly Beau Brooks. I just realized it by making an assumption about why he believes this elk hunt was legit and stuff...

exactly, can’t be poaching if there aren’t any limits.

As an outsider looking at what has been said and when. To me it feels like the kid was making a political move like what we see politicians do where they know something is about to come out so they jump out in front of it and try to control the narrative.

This is a great bull and I have seen nothing to say it wasn’t a legal kill or anything that makes me think it could even be illegal or unethical. However, pope and young and Boone and Crocker have their own set of rules that you must meet in order for a kill to be considered for the record book. And the shooter is required to sign an affidavit saying he met those requirements. Obviously Casey has done this in the past and he knew exactly what was required to get this bull into the record book.

At the end of the day this is not the biggest bull to ever walk the planet or to even be killed by a hunter. It is merely (maybe) the biggest bull that has been killed by a hunter that could meet the requirements to be entered into these record books.
