Needless to say, after 10K, the guy didn't want to pay any more. He still needed to pay for a taxidermist :chuckle:

Those bulls are reserved for guys with to much money and very little hunting skills that need a good profile picture. High fence hunt! :yike:
Or, turned loose about 3 days before the hunter shows up.... like the "Spider Bull" When you talk to residents in that particular area of Utah, that hunt. They know where that paticular bull came from.... and it was from behind the fences of a particular elk ranch. He was transported in an open stock trailer, and released just a week or so before the hunter came along... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

It could be that they're actually ranching and not hunting. But that'd be just plain crazy...

it is nice to see that the majority of the hunters/outdoorsman feel the same way about pen raised animals, what a piss poor way to hunt, if there was ever gonna be a ban on huntn it should be banning those types of places from raising awsome critters like that just so some joe smuck scud bottom vagrant rich ass hunter can come along and shoot the crap outta it, ban that and leave the rest of us that do it right alone :twocents::yeah: :tup: :tup:

I'm sorry, where did it say this guy was raising elk for high fence hunts???
:yeah: My cousin raises them on his ranch in CO, makes more butchering them and sending them to restaurants and markets than he could selling to a hunting ranch. He also sells the sheds, I believe they go somewhere in Asia.

Please, you're ruining this thread with your common sense.
We're looking for drama and over the top statements about 400" bulls in your back yard, and quotes like "I know a guy"...
Please go outside, come back in and try again.

My bad... you're right. I know a guy that heard about a fella that shot a 450" from this place out of a helicopter with an unlicensed guide from California :yike:

The mount came to his house later and he hired a person to come install it above his fire place.
He does NOT hunt like we do.
He does not respect the sport. It was just a goal to accomplish to put the mount in his cabin.
He only did it to get the trophy to put in his house take some pictures and that was it.
This world take different folks to turn on it's axis. So there is a need for such a business. It is not for me but for some folks it is the ticket. And he was happy.
