And you are right, people do pay a boat load to say they went hunting these days.

YA.  A mature bull would be a "trophy", while say a <2 yr bull or 5 yr cow would be a better meat prospect.  Up to each to find their sweet spot.

Bison is supposedly better for you clinically with higher protein and less fat.  There's no wagyu bison haha.  I haven't had much, but I've had burger and a few steaks.  I do like it, but generally not at the premium it sells for.

Last I checked a guided elk hunt is in this price realm.

Depends on what people have on a different bucket list.

So here's a price list from the site owner.  They are advertising a mature bull. I think that's a bull over 4 years old.

Just what do you think would be a fair price to shoot a mature bull?

How much do you suppose yours ended up setting ya back?
Ridgeratt:
A heck of a lot less than 5 grand.
And I didn't have to pay for cut and wrap.
