[WDFW-SUX]

I bet there are more 300" bulls killed in western archery than eastern archery every season..

[WAPITIHUNTER]

Whats the biggest bull you have seen out by you?

dead or alive?? 315

alot of bulls on west side yes, but majority of them are tiny! when i mean tiny im saying 5point or smaller. only maybe 2 units that have good quality elk and bulls. But there is alot of elk here on the west side ive hunted just about every good unit along with everybody and there brother, dad, sister, mom, cousin, uncle, grandfather, who else in the woods???

I think mature elk find ways to disappear in any unit.  They are where you find them, if you work hard enough to dive into nooks and crannies nobody else is willing to, or has simply overlooked.  Every unit has a pile of 3, 4, and *censored* 5's running around.  Just consider for every one of them that doesn't get killed is now into his 3rd season, then 4th...and soon you have a smart mature bull.

That being said, the first raghorn inside 30 gets an arrow in the ribs!

There is one unit that doesn't have any votes and i gotta say im surprised.

ive seen bulls in the mashel that would go 360 easy and one that way bigger, you cant hunt um but there there

Used to see some big ones around Mt. Saint Helens.  Hit or miss depending on what unit you are in.

[fishcrazy]

It depends on what you like. Do you like killing an ELK. Then we have lots of great units. Do you wantto kill a HUGE trophy? West Side sucks.

Fall River is a little surprising that it doesn't have votes.........Lincoln sucks for elk, so no surprise there.

I have seen some absolute monsters in westside units, that never get taken out, because they go into some hell holes no one with a right mind would even think about going into...

I watched a 7x7 350 class bull for over an hour one evening 200 yards from a paved FS road.  He could have cared less that I was there.... Saw him again the next year.. even bigger, in the same clearing.. I know what drainage he went into.. I could not even talk my billygoat of a brother to go after him.

they are there, but you have to be very lucky, and love to hunt the darkest, deepest, and steepest chithole you know of to find them once the shooting starts.

I have seen some huge elk in the Puyallup unit, but hunting them is a different story! I have video of a 378 bull that we could not shoot during archery season, a guy with muzzleloader ended up shooting him, a monster 7x8!! My fav is the Mashel, good bulls and lots of hunting ground, you don't have to worry about any property lines....
