The Washington State record for Roosevelt elk scores 380 6/8 B&C net, is an 8x8 and was killed by Sam Argo in Jefferson county in 1983. The bull ranks #4 all-time Roosevelt.

Should be noted that the Washington State record for typical elk scores 420 4/8 B&C net, is a 7x7 and was killed by Charlie Gunnier in Yakima county (on the reservation) in 1990. The bull ranks #7 all-time typical.

I would be skeptical that that second referenced animal represents a legally taken animal:

IIRC this crew had a reputation that preceded the conviction going back a decade.

What do they do with poached animals in the record book? Call them picked up heads so they don't give the poacher credit? Just curious
Post by: JDHasty on September 17, 2015, 12:49:42 PM
I am not a follower of the books, and when I saw this record referenced it raised a red flag w/me. The cavalier attitude regarding serial poaching of "record book" bulls by a well known group of individuals was a hot topic back in the mid seventies and when this conviction came down it validated what a lot of people had been saying.

And that makes a difference? How so? Someone brought this to my attention and when I saw the name it immediately rang a bell.

It shouldn't make any difference to you. I wasn't talking about any of your posts. Read back at what specifically I quoted.

Where was this Sam Argo from ? Any one know ?Carbonado area.
Post by: JimmyHoffa on September 17, 2015, 01:55:54 PM
I am only interested in where they are from because if memory is correct there was a crew from Onalaska that was busted some years back. Was wondering if they are the same guys. The name sounded familiar.that link said Carbonado, Kent and Buckley

Stop in the Burnett store sometime, if there is still a huge bull on the wall try asking the owner about it ... :chuckle: he doesn't much want to talk about it and will more than likely clam up and not look ya in the eye after that :chuckle:

Here's another article I found online. I have a whole bunch of newspaper clippings and a stuff at my mother's home and I am sure I have some articles from Fishing & Hunting News and a few others about this story.

Got pics of this big mt Rainier bull? Any links with pics??If I remember correctly that was the bull that got him in trouble, I think it was Terry Hoffer that noticed the flowers in the picture and knew they only grew at a certain elevation. He even recognized the area and went up and found the spot where the bull was taken, in the park. Man this brings up a few memories of my past, years ago.

Wow the game agent was Terry Hoffer. Long time ago. Hoffer was killed by a hunter with a loaded firearm in his vehicle. Sorry Sorry No Thread Jack intended.

They should be out there online somewhere. I had some old Washington Fishing & Hunting News at my moms house, but when I looked at them the other day they were all dry rotted. I bet the WDFW has some archived. Like I and others have said, this was a big deal around here. For years leading up that incident rumors had been circulating regarding what these jerks had been up to.
