Wow!  That is something else!  Congrats NUT family!

October is our busiest month, Ray Nick Brian Reed and I have hunters in Idaho, we've had deer and elk hunters in Utah who just finished, buffalo hunters in Montana, and this morning my wife Tara and Anthony have whitetail hunters in Washington.... :)

Here's photos of a 6x6 Utah Bull Elk taken recently:   Gentleman Bill (inside joke) with his 2010 Utah Bull Ek.   :)

Check out the new recovery method....  :chuckle:

The bull was taken in an over-the-counter tag area on private land.

Just a little side note, I hear comments all the time about how all the rich folks go hunting with guides. Like most of my clients, Bill is another working class guy, a retired maintenance worker from an electrical plant. He has a modest retirement and is just now starting to go on hunts he has dreamed his whole life about. He called me over two years ago and asked what his chances were of taking a mountable elk. I told him it's tough to go on one elk hunt and expect to get a trophy class bull. I told him about my best elk hunt and suggested that rather than hunting up to 10 or more years like the average elk hunter to try and get a nice bull, go one time on the best hunt you can afford. He has been sending me $500 payments for the last 2 years whenever he can afford to send the money. On Wednesday he shot this bull, the look on his face shows it was worth it. This was a once-in-a-lifetime hunt literally, he worked his whole life to do this someday when he retired. I am just happy to have been able to make this happen for Bill.

But, I think I have created a monster, he has already booked my best Montana mule deer hunt and is going to make monthly payments out of his retirement checks so he can afford to go on the mule deer hunt he has dreamed about his whole life. Next fall I will post his deer pictures, because like our best elk hunt, we have had 100% success on our best mule deer hunt.

Awesome, really happy for Gentleman Bill.

So how did that bull fit in the one man kayak!   :)

Good one Machias... :chuckle:

I wanted to video this hunt but we killed 3 mulie bucks the day before and I was stuck in Idaho caping and butchering. So I missed it... :bash:

I imagine he tied a rope on and they pulled it out with the tractor. This hunt is on a big agricultural ranch and tractors are used to recover the elk. We hunt the place like whitetails, sit in raised blinds or as bill was posted watching a game trail coming to the fields.

Just got a message from Anthony, the Titan Video crew killed a nice 5x5 whitetail, 30 minutes into the season this morning at Colville.

Great advice and story!!  I'm sure that is rewarding to put guys on good animals, especially guys like Bill who set a goal, worked hard, and made it happen.
