Well here we go again.
https://auctions.rmef.org/auctions/319/13407
You have to create an account to watch but it’s already at $66,000 with a couple days left to go.
The last 30 minutes is fun to watch and if a bid comes in with seconds to go they extend the bid time.
There are some great auctions to watch other than just the eastern Washington elk.
-
Are you bidding??
-
Up to $75k now!!

I hope I win

Pennsylvania and Washington are kicking it on the elk tags.
-
Both of those normally do very well.
Like I say the real fun is watching the last few hours of the last day.
I’m not done bidding, my wife says I need to keep going.
Cabin in the Bahamas for a week looks nice. :chuckle:
-
I was looking at that too, very nice and right on the water!

Last 30 minutes will be fun to watch. Sold for $160,000 last year and went from $100,000 to $160,000 in the last hour.
If a bid comes in with less than a minute to go they extend the time by 4 or 5 minutes so it won’t necessarily end right at 6pm if two bidders are going at it.
-
Pennsylvania auction went up to $326,000 :yike:
-
90 minutes left get out your checkbooks.
-
Sure would be fun to play!!
-
Place your bets now on the final number.
I'm going with $148k

hmm, 158,000

Up to 98k now. I find it crazy that Wa has such a high interest with elk, we beat WY, OR, MT, and Co when it comes to high auction prices for big bulls. Must be a pig out there. WY auction seems like a bargain !
-
I’m guessing $146,000. That’s my limit. :chuckle:
You can’t hunt bulls OTC in Washington like you can in montana. You can’t hunt bulls on the east coast OTC. So you have a supply and demand thing. If you want to hunt bulls here or in Pennsylvania you are going to pay a high price.
With that said the Montana tag is north of $70,000.
-
It’s happening, 98,100,102….
-
So if you pay 120-150k for a tag, do you pass up a 410” bull??? I wonder how many could??
-
$125,000 and going
-
128k
-
132k

Pretty sure they wanted to kill a clean typical over 400" last year and they passed non-typicals that were big big.

Makes sense. That pennsylvania bull is way bigger and doesnt even have broken points like the WA one. :chuckle:
-
Nice spot

The Pennsylvania bull did loose some inches from the rut on broken point tips. But although he doesn't have points broke off he isn't breathing anymore either. :dunno:
