Like I said a 250" bull is a good bull..nice pics by the way.

Most hunters want trophy class animals but keep watching tv expecting the state to provide easy trophies animals for them.  :dunno:

There are true trophies to be harvested but trophy class animals die of old age rather than at the hunters hand.... get it.

The chase or hunt never ends to harvest a good bull or buck, a trophy hunter puts in countless hours studying maps and gathering information and scouting... trophy class animals rarely get taken by chance. A true trophy mark for elk and deer starts at the record book, minimum scores usually dictate a trophy.

Good luck with your chase... hope all your trophy ambitions are met.

hopefully we can get some more pictures of big Roosies  :drool: :drool: :drool: horn porn at it's finest.

 I wish I could help you more. Never carried a camera in the woods until just recently. Most my pictures are in storage :( I have some decent archery kills but no good pictures.

 Decent bull. Scored 245, I think:


 This one was 306 1/8:


 This is in the field across from my Mother's, where I grew up:


 This was a friends, this year. He had never killed an elk so I guided him in on this one (black powder):


nice bulls...i especially enjoyed the shot palcement on that black powder bull...looks like a sinus infection gone bad
beer---it's whats for dinner

 Yeah, my buddy learned his lesson about Powerbelts. First shot cartwheeled that poor bull but it went on and on. Here is more of the story if you're interested.

 If not interested, the first shot hit high in the shoulder and penetrated a whopping 3 inches. No bone, just meat and it didn't do anything but cause pain :( It was a drawn out deal that was not good, but lessons learned.

some great bulls on here. We had a few around our place that would score about 240ish but they always left come hunting season. Actually had 3 nice bulls in our pasture one morning, one was a 3x3 and the others were 5x5 and one was a real unique 6x4.
