unique 1x6

[Holg3107]

Great Bull, good to see people study the regs and know what they are shooting at when they do. One of the most unique character bulls I've seen, would make a cool euro mount, still think i would hesitate pulling the trigger on that one though. Glad to hear the gammie saw it your way.

Couple I found on the net.

This might have to be my new sig line.

The weird non typical point ORIGINATES ORIGINATES ORIGINATES less than 4" above the base of the antler. It's legal. Would I have shot it? Probably not. I'd be to scared I'd get screwed by some gamey who as is bad at figuring out the regs as some of the Hunt-Wa members but to me that bad boy is legal and awesome.

Nice spike Congrats to hunter! Looks to be legal to me!

Jeepasaurusrex, you forgot the 30 people that say magnum light bulbs are way better than regular light bulbs!

[ouchfoss]

Very nice! I love a non-typical far more than the most perfectly symetric typical. My cousin would love that bull. We always make dumb jokes about a spike by 9 or a spike 6.

Fixed it for you!

GREAT Bull!! Getting a 6xspike in a spike unit is what I call a bonus!!! LOL I would have shot it in a heart beat! My uncle got a monster 6x1 long before I was hunting.....it had a monster 6 point side with a 4 foot dagger on the other.....Also, there was a guy in the Mission a few years back that got a 7x1.....right at the end of the spike side looked like someone had stuck a mini basketball to its antler....still perfectly legal!!

Tell your partner or who ever it is a awesome bull and congrats!

now i have a question. would the spike side of this bull make it a legal 3 pt or better if the other side was a single tine?

After reading through the rules...I believe it would be considered legal!!! But then again......

[head hunter]

question for the hunter was that bull killed in the wolf fork by chance ?

Antler Point-Elk: A projection off any part
of the antler measuring at least one (1) inch
in length measured from the longest side. Eye
guards are antler points if they are at least one
inch long


Spike Bull Restrictions:
Elk taken in these units must have at least one antler with no branches
originating more than four inches above where the antler attaches to the skull.
An animal with a spike on one side (1x2) is legal in spike only units. An animal
with more than one antler point more than four inches above where the antler
attaches to the skull on both sides (2x2) is illegal.
Ok the wdfw really needs to get better proof readers.This elk by their definition is a 3x6, and 1x6. Depening on which antler they chose to honer on the right side.Congradulations on a trophy of a life time, I had no intenions of taking away from that. I thought this site was to unite and discuss isssues we run into from time to time in our hunting adventures. And maybe try and help fix WDFW when their regs are in error.
