It's a bit of a different story for me when it comes to the Colville tribe. They manage game and have some monsters running around because of it.

Great bull.

What get's me is when guys just hack them off at the head.  I am sure he is just going to do a euro mount but that cape is worth some money to someone.

Just something for everyone to think about.  If you get a big bull or buck but don't have the money for a shoulder mount, you should still save the cape.

Some of the families around Nespelum or Inchilium just don't even think of doing a shoulder mount.  Some do though.  A lot of the Tribal Members don't live in a house that an elk shoulder mount is something they could even hang on the wall.  I do see shoulder mounts hanging in some of their shops from time to time though.  More often than not what I will see is the antlers or the skull and antlers in the shop or hanging outside.

Most don't do any mounting of there heads or shoulders. You probably only see a fraction of the animals harvested on the Colville reservation and they get some dandies!! They like myself just don't post any pics on the web......

My comment was actually meant for everyone, not just tribal members, I see a ton of photos with some pretty awesome racks that the head is just cut off.  Every year there are guys that get a trophy of their lifetime and damage the cape on the way out of the woods, with poor shot placement or hair slip because they don't get it cooled off in time.   those guys could use one of these capes from another hunter that didn't want to do a mount.  Instead of just cutting off the head if you don't have a need for the cape, save the cape and donate it to your taxidermist, many times they will take it as credit for your next mount.  Just my  :twocents:

I just thought that some people on here enjoy seeing mature animal's that were taken by people who put in work to harvest a nice animal. It seem's like if they can't put someone down for the way they hunt then it's the shoe's they're wearing. :dunno: Like Plat said, maybe he did sell the cape to someone who didn't need the head because they are using it for clothing or a rug to cover a chair or anything else. Then again, wouldn't it be illegal for him to sell part's of the animal? I thought the tribe didn't allow that.

They would probably GIVE you a cape if they remembered you needed it and did not cut the head off below the jaw.

I think most like to see animals that are taken legally and ethically.  From what I saw in both of the FB referenced threads it appeared to me that they were on the up and up and I haven't heard anything otherwise.

I think it unfortunate when animals like these get heaped into the "that is just a tribal kill" and the "they just shoot and kill everything under the sun" stuff.

I wonder if people would be happier with the tribes out during the general season shooting these bulls.  I much prefer less people in the woods so I am happy that they wait until we are done hunting before they head to the woods.

Why is it that egg nog is good for so much longer than milk? I just thought it sounded like someone was bashing cuz he didn't save the cape. Like someone said, maybe he had a bad cape like a big bald spot on his neck. I just didn't get why the cape mattered. I don't care that he shot this bull in December or that he's a native. I shot an elk last March in Pomeroy. :yike:

It would be much more difficult killing a bull during our general season. So I'd say that's why they are 'considerate' and "wait" until we are done hunting.

Also, tribal hunters actually don't wait at all- they're out elk hunting in August and September before our general archery season opens.

Not bashing, just stating the facts.

It would be much more difficult killing a bull during our general season. So I'd say that's why they are 'considerate' and "wait" until we are done hunting.

Also, tribal hunters actually don't wait at all- they're out elk hunting in August and September before our general archery season opens.

Not bashing, just stating the facts.

I've killed elk during general season. I just hiked to a high point and waited for the pumpkins to chase the elk my way. Heck, I could've laid out a few elk during archery late season if I wanted to since the area I was in was flooded with elk and hunters but I was being considerate and letting those with a time limit go 1st. I sat back and watched  about a dozen guys chase elk amd I could've picked off half the elk as I had a vantage point and the elk were easy pickings as they were barely running and tired since they'd been fleeing for life the last couple days.

I'm considerate because of time constraints for those without my time limits otherwise I'd just do what I've done before and let others chase elk to me. :dunno: :tup:

Why is it that egg nog is good for so much longer than milk? I just thought it sounded like someone was bashing cuz he didn't save the cape. Like someone said, maybe he had a bad cape like a big bald spot on his neck. I just didn't get why the cape mattered. I don't care that he shot this bull in December or that he's a native. I shot an elk last March in Pomeroy. :yike:
  Eggnog IS the real underlying issue here if we are being honest :twocents:

I know right, why is it that if it taste's good then it's clearly bad for you? What kind of preservatives are in it that stuff? Strangely enough, alcohol does not make it last either.
I've never had it in my fridge long enough to hit an expiration date :dunno:  Normally I prefer my eggnog straight but I had some this weekend that was mixed with fireball and lord have mercy that was a dangerous combo!

Mmmmmmmm...fireball :drool: :chuckle: hey, this is a serious topic so take your babble somewhere else. >:(

That's called pre-season scouting! :chuckle: Heck I just said earlier that I shot a cow in March this year and no one even questioned how. And I'm a whiteman! My wife shot one too!

How do you state “facts” about people you don't know? You have no idea when, where amd how my family and I hunt. That's called an assumption and generalization. The problem with every single tribal thread on here.

So you're saying tribal hunters don't hunt elk in August and September? My comment wasn't about you and your family specifically, since obviously I don't know you and this topic isn't about you. As you said, my comment was a generalization. But no, it was not an assumption.

Of course there's elk killed in August and September. When you say  they wait because it's easier is an assumption. Some people don't like to hunt elk with their tongues hanging out of their mouth because they've been running all day long. Some don't like the huge crowds during general. Some don't like to leave their truck during general because of theft and idiots. Some like winter because it's cooler and can hang the meat for longer. Yes some do it because it's easier.

Gee, I even wrote that I wasn't bashing but you still think I was?  :chuckle:

You're missing the point. Which was only that the tribal members don't have to wait until December to hunt. That's all. Call it whatever you want. I said it's "easier" to hunt outside of the general seasons. Less hunters, less pressure on the elk equals "easier." I would hunt outside of the general seasons too if I could. Who wouldn't? There's nothing wrong with an easy elk. Or, at least an "easier" elk.

I deleted most of them.   It was distracting from the thread.  I already had that thought when two other members reported it to me.   I wasn't picking on plat, but he can keep it on point.

The guys I know are not braggarts, a lot of them are very soft spoken.  The community is very close knit.  The Tribal members I know do take their kids and go shed antler hunting, and they hang up large racks but sometimes inside their shop or in the back of a barn and then you will be doing something or just yakking and they say:  I have something to show you that you would like and it is a deer, moose or elk rack or a massive set of ram horns.  They will go nuts about finding a pair of shed antlers and may even mount and display them, of the guys I know I don't see many shoulder mounts though.
