Gov. tag 2011

[Mr Mykiss]

I guess it wasn't the Gov tag... a different tag
I'm easily confused...

[rosscrazyelk]

So if MB is tresspasing on private ground and you know they don't have permission why dont you tell the owners of the land and have them lay the law down on them or quit bitching about it!  I think the fact that MB spends more time in the woods then others makes everyone jealous and helps them find big bulls!!! FYI I fill my tags and help my friends and family fill theirs too.  And usually they are pretty nice bulls and bucks!!! Like state record bulls (Nailbender)! and BC bulls and bucks and State record Mountain Lions!!!  key to each of these hunts was SCOUTING and years of hunting the same areas so I know them well and have friends that scout hard too...

Not saying that MB is ethical/or not  cause I never have had a problem or heard first hand a complaint about them. just saying!!! if you scout alot and hunt hard and have high paying clients to support your Gas bill well more power to you... get off your computer and find your next trophy!

Hunter I agree with you buy IF they are trespassing then they need to be punished and charged. Just cause they can hunt and have money doesn't give them the right to think they can do whatever they want. All weve heard on here is talk talk talk about them but no proof and nobodys been written up. Imyself dont agree with the gov tag anyway. I don't like that guys can just buy the tag and shoot a big bull. Put in for the drawings and do it like the rest of us. All the guys that scout and put in the time watching the big bulls and dream of getting drawn and then some rich guy .swoops in and shoots it. I don't believe paid guided trophys should be allowed to go in the record books. Get out and earn it yourself. Its more of a trophy when you do.

mossback is a guide service that no one cares for....   


and the gov tag is an auctioned elk tag in wa.  I've heard all sorts of rumors about it like they track the bull w micro chip lol.  I read on mossbacks website that you can call him and bid on the phone while he's at the auction.  Rich people stuff.

I agree with both of you to some point on this. They are not above the law and should be punished the same as anyone else. They put in there time and I'm sure work their a$$es finding the animals for clients, IMO if we all could do what we love to do for a living we doing the same thing. Spending time in the woods, pursuing the beasts and making money. Hunting guides are needed and important, they are just another tool you can use (like a GPS, Compass,Etc.). As far as not being able to be in the books if you use a guide.... Come on- so if a guy has a better scope on his riffle than you does that mean he can't be in the books either? Some people can afford better equipment than others and a guide is expensive piece of equipment.

 Just to clear it up they are not trespassing, those of you that are saying they are are way off base.

 Maverick, the tag holder is out there hiking every day, "earning it". Don't hate the player, hate the game. Most do not have the means to purchase the tag, does that make those that do have the means bad people? It says a lot about a man that judges someone by rumor or finacial status rather than waiting until they meet them in person.

 Since there are so many experts out here, why don't you haters tell us all how many days the tag holder has been out there hunting for his elk, it should be easy since he was seen trespassing all over the place.

 I think you all would be shocked to know how long he has been scouting/hunting/hiking this season.
