The bull that was shot practically in someone's pasture?
Is that a problem?
Those elk go all over, and are as free ranging as any elk on earth. Fair chase is fair chase.
I'd shoot that bull in a filed, if I had permission to hunt the field.
Just sayin'.

Nothing like wild, free range elk killed in someone's back yard/pasture over a dump truck load of apples.
Extreme!!

I have elk in my pasture all the time and have had many really nice bulls but I still refuse to shoot one. To me it is not much different than shooting one of my cows. I have enough neighbors who just ride out on their tractors or quads and shoot bulls from them. No thanks.

You've got to hunt elk where they are, and somebody's got to hunt these elk that Shane Barbour is targeting. So what if it's not a physically demanding hunt? Meat's meat, right? I would hunt elk there if I had access to some of that private land.
I'm actually watching the show right now, and yes they are hunting with Shane Barbour. Well, actually Shane wasn't there during the hunt. After she killed the bull they said "we need to call Shane." Seemed kind of odd for a guided hunt.
Also I'm confused why at the beginning of the show they said they were "hunting on the Roosevelt side of I-5." They had to be on the east side of I-5, correct?

They said they were hunting the coast that didn't look like it and I didn't think Shane guided on the coast
I thought they were hunting on the coast too. But when I saw that they were going to the " Church " food pantry and it had a (360) 893-0000 number on the building, I said to myself, that's a Graham prefix........893 :dunno:

Anyone notice the range they were at when testing out the there muzzy's for his wife.. Was here in Pierce County, closest one to Graham that is open to the public I believe.. If they were out on the coast ala Hwy 101, then there are ranges down there closer to that area, Evergreen, etc..

360 covers a large area all over...

893 is a Graham number.
anything west of the cascades is "the coast" to anyone in eastern Washington,Idaho or Montana. if im not mistaken the western extreme boys are from Montana, so they probably thought they were on the coast
The Western Extreme guys are from Spokane. Burnsworth and Bunney. Bunny owns the RNR chain of RV sales over here. I don't know what Burnsworth does.

Shane was on film quite a bit, but never said a word. Seems he'd be wanting to talk a little and try to promote his business.

My wife noticed the flinch before me. Had it on DVR so I went back and watched it in slow mo, it was really obvious then. 150 grains is a lot and I am sure it was kicking hard.

I see nothing wrong with it..it is what is for that area. Hell we get elk in the fields around here and I would take one in a heartbeat if given the opportunity, which has never happened..hunting season rolls around they get smart

I see nothing wrong with hunting elk wherever it's legal. If they're in an area of small farms mixed with residential areas, so what?

:yeah: The anti's love to see hunters arguing amongst themselves and putting down ones way of hunting over another. I'm with bobcat. If it's legal, I can't hate.

If you agree or disagree we need to all remember were all part of a group called hunters. The animal activists love it when we start to tear down people in our own group. If you get to hunt where its flat and easy then your one of the lucky ones, if not then your not as lucky I guess. Why does everyone seem to hate guys who have it easier or better hunting than someone else. It seems a lot of guys out there are jealous because some guys have great spot to hunt and others don't. Don't know many guys who wouldn't have shot those big bulls if they were coming into their own leased pastures, why wouldn't you. As long as the hunts are legal and on their leased or owned ground whats it really matter. I have a 4000 acre lease and we have a ton of deer on it and take mule deer into the 170 class and 150 class whitetail. The hunting is flat and over agricultural and in timber ground. We also run feeders and have food plots on it. I do this to help out my hunters. If we have kids hunting, elderly, or disabled hunters then I have places to make their hunts easier and more productive. Does that make the hunting unfair and easy. It does compared to guys that hunt Mule deer in the mountains I guess. I guess because a guy has the means and opportunity to hunt these elk in a "easy area" more power to them. Every hunter is different, some like a hard challenging hunt others like a easy hunt to each their own. Doesn't mean one way is right and the other is wrong. If I had elk like that coming on our farm I wouldn't hesitate to harvest one of them either. We are all hunters and need to stick to supporting each other not tearing each other down. Just my opinion and that's it..Well said! Especially in light of all the negative attention hunting's been getting with the likes of Cecil and dead giraffes popping up on social media sites.

I would guess 304th and meridian, but somewhere out there for sure.
Yes 304th

I wouldn't pay to hunt there but I have no issue with them doing it. I'd rather go DIY in the backcountry and take a raghorn.
If I lived on that land, I'd probably have a hard time leaving to hunt elsewhere though :chuckle:
Post by: Jonathan_S on August 04, 2015, 09:26:23 AM
I don't care about the hunt, the hunters or the guide. My only issue is misrepresenting the animal as being a true Roosevelt by the book when in fact it only qualifies as a Cascade-Roosevelt. The intentions was clear, deception and lies, the rest I could give two hoots about.
This is true. Might as well take a big bull off the PCT and say it's a coastal bull.
