Just got off the phone with a buddy.  His brother and dad drew the Pahvant hunt.  His brother killed a nice 300+ class bull in the Pahvant unit  I know not very big apparently the 380+ and the 300+ switched places in the timber and as soon as he saw horns come out he shot! :'( :'(
But his dad hunted really hard all week, had several 350-380 class bulls that he had "Almost chances" on and wasn't able to connect.  So after 10 years of putting in for that hunt his dad had to eat his tag. :'( :'( :'( :'(
He is going up tonight to "Somewhere around Logan" on a CMU hunt to get his wife a 350+ bull. They have been watching it all day, dang near have it tied up so she can get it.  I'll let you know what happens with her.
He said in the Pahvant they saw ALOT of very nice 380-400 class bulls just weren't in the right spot... :bash:

If you are asking me about the hunt we were doing, it was a rifle hunt. The bull green scored about 348, they scored it conservatively so it might make 350. I should get a picture in a few days and will post it. My guide called it in, they shot it, it started to leave, and he called it back again, I know that sounds crazy, but it happened, the guy shot it again, then it went off a ways and bedded down, they snuck in and it took a couple more shots to polish him off. That's what happens when the first shot isn't a good one....

They are headed to the Henry Mtns next for a mule deer hunt. Hoping for a 180-200 class buck....

I think I have 10 points now, so one of these years I might draw an elk tag for myself. I would like to shoot one more bull elk, then I will probably just shoot cows every year to eat and save the bulls for my hunters....

I do have two really good landowner bull elk tags available in a great Utah elk unit. 350 to 400 class bulls are the target.

My cost for these landowner tags is $9000 each. I will do the hunt for $2000. Your cost would be $11,000. These premium hunts usually sell for about $15,000 to $18000.
