https://www.boone-crockett.org/category-boundaries-big-game-records#MuleDeer B&C boundaries for today... I can't find boundaries for 1980... But guessing it was cut down the middle of the Cascades pretty much... They said it's been moved multiple times... I remember the PCT being a boundary at one point... I'm thinking that bulls 340"ish... Could very well be a rosie... That's so hard to tell from the look... B&C just started accepting them in 1979... And they got it done up for someone... Who knows the story... Probably a joke for a friend or family... The 300 series gmu's that border the Cascades are full of rosies and crossbreeds... Just like the benchlegs... |

There were some big bulls in the Soiuxon in the early 80’s - because most of the unit was closed due th the eruption of Mount St Helens in May 1980. |

Just curious because I searched the records book for this bull under his name and all the different elk categories --- End quote --- Boone and Crockett doesn't engrave a plate for you. They send you a certificate. Someone had that plate made. Also, just because it was scored by B&C standards doesn't mean that it was officially scored or entered in the books. Most likely Mr. Morgan shot a stomper of a bull elk (that he believed was a Roosevelt), had someone score it (or scored it himself), came up with 370" and when he had it mounted, he had a plate made to commemorate it. He was also smart enough to put his wife's name on the plaque for her role in harvesting the bull. Smart man. Either way; it's a beautiful bull (I agree with most of you that it appears to have more Rocky characteristics than Roosy-but who knows :dunno: ), I would absolutely have gotten him mounted, and if putting my wife's name on a plaque would have convinced her to let me hang it in the living room, I'd have done that too.... |
