That is some of the nicer bulls I have seen there.  There are some real toads this year.  Thanks for sharing I sure miss going to the feeding stations.

Thats the mainfeeding station just up Hwy12 at Oak Creek.  They started feeding the ones at the junction away from teh road a bit.  Away from the people.  not sre what their thoughts are on that.  Then there is the oneup the Wenas, but you have to have a good spotter to really see them.  There is also another up Cowiche I guess.  They are starting to feed them further and further away from the folks except at the main office.  May have something to do with the Indian pressure, or just don't want the elk to get used to the people. IDK.  These were at the main one at Oak Creek.

The thirds on that bull are sure awesome.

Thanks Bone,
Im gonna have to get back down there one of these days. Maybe I'll get drawn this year, used to do alot of elkhunting in the hills above the lake. The last year I hunted down there was in 92'. Just to many people during modern. I've gone completely to archery now. Nice pictures!

Nope, you are right on.  18+18+22+22+10 = 90x2 =180 plus 45 width (modest)+90 mains=315+48 of mass(modest)= 363 +12 inch extra equals 375.  All conservative estimates in my book yet still a gorgeous score.

Those are a couple great bulls in there, nice to see they made it through the season and have survived poachers.

Nothing special.  I just snapped a few pictures.  Can't get anything good at this feeding station.

Yep, not a real good photoshoot type of situation, but a good place to drool, and the kids love it.  Thanks for adding the pics.  When were you over?  I remember you saying something about coming over when I was venting about the Injuns trying to kill that bull.

I was over there about 4 weeks ago or so.  I tried to get good pictures there ten years ago and nothing turned out.  I just took a few to document them this time and didn't even try for quality.
