Heard today that at least one in our area went home with his tag. Really surprised to hear that, seems archery hunters were in the bulls regularly this season.

There is a guy on here that had the Teanaway sept. rifle tag and killed like a 322 or something. I think the story and pics are 3 or 4 pages back.

Heard the guy with the Naneum tag got a 370 out of Naneum basin a couple days ago .

Yeah a teanaway bull went down. we talked to the guy while archery hunting and he really did his homework.
spent like 11 straight weekends scouting.

i know the guy with the packwood rifle tag, he shot a 290-300 bull about a week ago

jstone · « **Reply #7 on:** September 29, 2009, 08:39:01 AM »

Yes i heared that the naneum bull was a pig.

I personally saw one of the wenaha (sp) bulls. Seen it get rough scored at a little over 350.
While dropping my buck off at the butcher, met a guy with a tucannon ( sp) tag, I BELIEVE, to be rifle. He said his bull roughed at 396. I saw the picks. It is by far the biggest bull I've ever seen. We will likely never see the picks as he is a old school hunter. He said he saw a nice bull shot it, and one of his sons pursisted on a score. So they roughed it. The G4s go 24.25 from what he said.
That's what I've personaly seen. Keep on mind I know Jack all about score as it's irrelevant to me, so I could not say if it's bs or not, but judging by the pics... I'd believe it.
Ps on I phone, so sorry for crumby write up.

I witnessed the Cowichee tag get filled ,I have a thread of it on here somewhere. Not a huge elk maybe 300 if lucky.Also I know the white river tag was filled. I ran into the guy while he was scouting, Talked with him after season and he said he got one. He is gonna put pictures on here Soon I hope. He did say that he saw a monster 7x7 That was close to a 400 bull After he shot his In a area I told him to go, But he decided not to go there.. Oh well

would love more info on the Wenaha rut rifle bulls.. Dad has a big bull tag up there

Buckblaster · « **Reply #14 on:** October 02, 2009, 06:13:07 PM »

I would like to see more of the rifle rut bull pics. I know there were alot of nice bulls taken. It would be nice to see what potential this tag has to offer. Lets see them all.

mtncook · « **Reply #15 on:** October 02, 2009, 08:44:21 PM »

I'm sure the East Wenaha tag went home empty. Will confirm with an E-mail soon. The tag holder asked alot about the area before coming over. They had some experience in part of the unit, I'm not 100% sure where they hunted but I do know where they did not! The big boys are still there. I packed out one of the new Wenaha East Buck Muzzleloader tag bucks yesterday. He had a misfire on a dandy buck 4th day then shot a legal buck the last morning, when I got there to pack them out they were just finishing working him up.

Is there anyway that we can see pics of that bull.

yelp · « **Reply #19 on:** October 05, 2009, 01:31:42 PM »

I know the Prescott Tag was filled..340's.

nwhunter · « **Reply #20 on:** October 05, 2009, 05:35:22 PM »

Wow I thought eating a E Wenaha bow tag was ridiculus but not filling the rifle rut tag is insane! Would like to hear that story, it was pretty warm in sept and the big ones weren't standing out on the open ridges everywhere but that should have been an awesome hunt. Maybe they were looking for 400 or bust. nwhunter

Yeah, that would be the tree farms down around the wallula junction, like to see a picture of that bull, must not be someone from the site.

prescott bull was nice. heres a write up and picture. http://union-bulletin.com/articles/2009/10/07/sports/091007s1doncol.txt

BLUEBULLS · « **Reply #26 on:** October 10, 2009, 11:55:23 AM »

that Prescott bull has some pretty good fronts!!!!

It's pretty cool to see women getting it done.

ThePascoKid · « **Reply #27 on:** October 12, 2009, 11:19:36 AM »

Sounds like maybe Broetje orchards, man I'd love to draw that permit. That's a nice bull.

buckhorn2 · « **Reply #28 on:** October 12, 2009, 11:35:28 AM »

I talked to the guy who had the rimrock tag and he did;nt get anything. He said it was so hot and dry that he only saw a spike and did;t shoot it.

eastsidebugle · « **Reply #29 on:** October 12, 2009, 07:51:32 PM »

what doya think it scored?? anybody heard?? looks pretty narrow. Hunting an apple orchard down in the lowlands doesnt appeal to me at all. I guess if there are elk there though hunters will follow and i would to if I had no other option

He must not have got out of the truck very much then. My brother had the Rimrock ML branch tag and we had them screaming all over the place. All the hunters we saw were the ones driving the roads and bugling from their truck. Not trying to call your friend a road hunter but the bulls in the Rimrock were screaming. The only time they shut up was when that cold front with snow hit. After that they were screaming again.

Got the report on the Wenaha East Rifle Hunt Tag. Big 0 not sure the flavor of that soup but should be real hard to swallow. nwhunter and I tried to help them but they were going to do it on their own. Some one earlier said there are no Big bulls in Wenaha East, that 320 is about it. Picked up a camera Saturday that had some good pictures to prove otherwise.

nwhunter · « **Reply #33 on:** October 21, 2009, 07:59:42 AM »

I am trying to still choke down my bow tag but that rut tag soup would make me puke, would like to hear the story on that. Dave there really aren't that many big bulls in the wenaha units so don't try to convince them of it they are all in the dayton. LOL nwhunter

mtncook · « **Reply #34 on:** October 21, 2009, 08:22:22 AM »

I guess I was seeing things there. Actually Scott the Watershed is still the hot place to go. The big boys have their anual powwow there August 15 to Jan 15 yearly. Had a BIG cat, small bear, and a few bulls, cows with calves on the camera I just picked up that was north of our last year camp. John did not say much about the hunt except they could not get a shot. A real bad taste.

Wenaha West was filled... 350 or so bull 2nd to last evening... Bulls were all in the timber from what I heard...
