Post by: Muleyslyr on November 15, 2007, 09:56:09 AM: Damn!! Great fuggin' Bull. Did you guys turn in the collar? I'm sure the Game Dpt. has been following that dude for a while.
Title: Re: Buddys Nooksack Bull Elk
Post by: swizzler on November 15, 2007, 10:52:01 AM: Yes, the local warden took the collar and returned it to the bio. My bro called the number on the ear tag and talked to the bio who tranq'd this bull. It was only tagged and collared 1yr ago in the spring, before shedding horns. The bio e-mailed my bro some pics of the bull while it was out and they were working on it. It was a 6pt then as well, pretty cool. Don't know the age, hopefully they will let us know as we were required to submit the teeth. I will try to get my bro to post the pics the bio sent him, may be tough as he isn't a member yet.

Post by: Skyvalhunter on November 15, 2007, 11:56:29 AM: Anyone have an idea how big the herd is? Will there be decent bulls left for next year?
Title: Re: Buddys Nooksack Bull Elk
Post by: Bearhunter on November 15, 2007, 12:20:59 PM: I think they killed most of the big bull this year, probably wont be any good next year.
Title: Re: Buddys Nooksack Bull Elk
Post by: jkononen on November 16, 2007, 12:16:50 PM: yeah i agree with bearhunter. most of the real big ones got shot.
