Ok here is the text on the e-mail I got with the picture attached.







Oh here ya go!!  In case any of you geniuses have an extra $127,000
frickin' dollars you don't have any use for......

Should you want some good elk meat.  No problem.  You give me the
$127,000.  I will in return go purchase and deliver $7,000 worth of
 elk steaks to ya.  I might lose a little on the deal, but, anything to
 help out. 
  Subject: 540 class elk

Notice the price tag on this puppy!!

And they say money can't buy happiness! Look at this lucky hunters big
smile.

I feel bad for the animal packing around those behemoth antlers!

THIS IS A 540 CLASS BULL TAKEN IN COLO ON A PRIVATE RANCH HUNT HE PAID
$127,000 FOR IT

I dont see how anyone can be pleased with hunting like that and mounting that animal on your wall.  Probably make up some B.S. story to go along with it and say it was such a hard hunt.  Just like those hunting shows you see occassionaly where the hunter shoots a deer and then goes on a rant about "man we've been hunting so hard these past few days, freezing conditions, etc....then you notice the nice propane heater and enclosed room with sliding windows for them. But i guess that is the lifestyle and hunting style people have in certain places of the country.

I'd pay the $127k to hunt the guys who think that this is a cool way to "hunt". These *censored*bags have more money than brains I guess.  Just look at the retarded grin on that dudes face, their aint a lot of good going on in that noggin.

i'm gonna guess that dude is getting his pic taken with somebody else's elk.

:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Seriously, who would buy such a thing?  Must be from overseas or something, because anyone from here who tried to pass off a bull like that to someone who cares (e.g. other elk hunters) would get laughed at.
