Way cool, thanks for the shot of adrenaline :chuckle:

I just saw this one pop up, it has double brows but will it score well, it looks a bit small to me.

I am going to guess this little guy at about 36"-38". not exactly what I would call a B&C bull !!!
The essense of freedom is the proper limitation of government !!!

Not only is he narrow, but his palms aren't long.  He does have double brows so he will score some though plus about 6 points on each side.  It's probably about the average bull a guy takes in WA according to the general averages I've seen...

I have been to Sportsmans, Sportco and Cabelas looking for a 49 DN unit map, Sportsmans and Sportco are out and Cabelas doesn't even carry Washington unit maps, can you believe that? There must be a load of guys hunting that unit, it seems its the only one missing off the dispalys. :bash:

Here's a link for State land maps. http://www.dnr.wa.gov/BusinessPermits/HowTo/Government/Pages/eng_rms_how_do_i_order_a_pub_lands_quad.aspx
Also the unit maps can by purchased from most any store that sells hunting licences over there. My Mom picked me up one for 117 at the local store that sells licences.

yes there is lots of land but is rough country. You can get lucky and find good bulls from the roads but if you don't know where to look you wont find many bulls over 40"

I don't understand this statement.  It's not rocket science.  There are a lot of things I could say but I'll hold off...

Don't take it personally sometimes he gets cranky when he's over worked!!
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I helped a friend years ago hunt that unit for moose.  He shot a 55" moose.  It wasn't rocket science and there were plenty by the roads...  I don't think the way we hunted was luck because we were able to get on plenty of moose over 40".  It's just a difference of opinions.

I have found moose sheds that weighted 17.5 pounds and score 196. that is a monster there are bulls that score in the mid 160's to 170's if you know where to look. I have been watching one bull that should be some were around the 170 range. 55" is a great bull most people don't get bulls that big. I didnt say they can't be found just that it's not a cake walk thats all.

Enough of the back and forth, lets see those sheds.  POA, I've seen your website and it looks like you kill some good ones, post up some photos so guys know the potential out there with the tag.

Give Outfitter a call if you have a 49 or Mt Spokane Tag. He has pleanty of good bulls on his property usually .I have seen them. I talked to him the other day and he said he was full on moose clients for this year but would help other hunters that drew in any way he could at no charge . Even told me if I heard of anyone that drew they could stay in his cabins in either unit at no charge!

this bull had a 51" spread




same bull scored 166 5/8


this bull was the widest one @ 57.5"






here are some sheds this one weighted 17.5 we have found his shed 3 years in a row. this was when he was at his peak he is going down hill now. I figured that with a 55" spread this bull would have scored 196





here are some other big sheds.




and here is a bull elk my friend shot with his bow scored 347 5/8th b&c
