Title: big Quinault bull....anyone know about it?
Post by: BlacktailBuck on September 21, 2015, 01:35:47 PM: Has anyone heard of a big bull being taken by a Quinault tribal member recently. I heard from a couple different people that it is a 9x9, but nobody seems to have a picture.

There was a decent crowned 7x7 taken out of the Clearwater a week or so ago by some young kid who got lucky while road hunting. It got a lot of attention by looky-loo's and they might've even got stopped by LEO's, so I wouldn't be surprised if it grew to a 9x9 by now. It actually wasn't that big. A decent 5 x 5 with 14 more inches of kickers maybe.

You are correct. A 7x7 that was basically a decent 5x5 with 14 mores inches of antler between 6's and crown points. It was a decievingly small bull...that I would never pass on and almost certainly mount. :chuckle:

Post by: Coastal_native on September 22, 2015, 08:18:02 PM: Admittedly, I would be calling it a royal 7x7 if I shot it...or maybe even a 7x8 for that little pimple on its eyeguard.

Post by: PlateauNDN on September 22, 2015, 08:29:56 PM: Ummm...alright alright alright...I don't see a tag, no orange and by the only evidence provided shows just head taken so obviously a tribal kill and they left the meat...no wonder they got stopped by l.e.o.s

:chuckle:
