in 2002 or 2003 I killed the muzz WA record bull. at the time he was 370 gross and 356 or so net i believe. Now that bull isnt in the top 8. And that is just considering those that report it to NW Biggame. You can probably double those stats. I killed my bull in the early morning but it was going to be a 70+ degree weather day. I seen two 6pts around 300 class on the way out that morning I could of killed. I agree, there are some great MIGRATORY spots for these Manashtash bulls who are headed with the cows down to Joe Watt and Robinson canyons.

I see they give 1 rifle tag out...  since the Margaret is no longer going to be a quality tag... I may just start putting my 10 pts. and growing every year,  towards that tag next year..... and the next, and the next and the next....   :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: 
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I call BS on that score!  Who scored it?  I don't see it being any bigger than 320"


How about pic's of those past hunts?????


My Observatory bull from last year. 359 6/8. Yes, this was a decent hunt area not that long ago. (Like last year!)  :tup:
exactly bull pictures are hard to judge size... I didn't want to be a huge *censored* and say 250" but figured it was small in score.  Doesnt' really matter if you are happy about shooting it then thats all.  All the bulls are awesome and hopefully the management of our herds is changed so we don't lose all the bulls that we have gotten so big.

yes it is hard to judge It is hard to judge them from pictures but that 359" bull doesn't look even close to 359" from the picture.  Usually you can make a bull look bigger then it is but not often smaller...  Give me a break about what?  Keep hunting on the west side and stay out of the East side tags!
