Because it says San Carlos, does that mean this was an indian res hunt?

I'm sure it was.  Probably a $40k hunt.
Cut em!

You’ll be a ways north of that for a bull that size.

I would pay $40k for that hunt and a bull like that.  Auction tag here this year went for $55,000.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

40k isn’t going to get you what will probably be the biggest bull shot on the San Carlos this year.

I'm assuming it's the San Carlos chairman's permit. I can't find the 2019 one, but in 2015 it sold for $155k and a tribal guide is required....

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I remember the same hunter flying in the day before one of his dozen guides found his bull in the blues, shot the 400” plus bull and then flew out.  Great story. Id rather hear a story of some guy who worked his butt off killing a 280” bull, but that’s just me.  Sure, prob a bit jealous, but not of the hunt.
:yeah:

Easily over 300k then his guide is prob more, and yes it’s on the San Carlos Reservation.  Homer finds the elk he fly’s in and shoots them.  Flys out with the head and cape.  Gives the meat to the people, but I can say one thing he’s a great man in my eyes for giving back to a San Carlos Nation when he really don’t have to.  sure he’s getting elk from their Rez but no elk is worth 300k!!!  He’s actually built the demand along with his guide and their family.  Ya not a great hunting story, but a great life story!!!

I was there on that hunt. I have been going there for over 30 years. Some think you just sit on a meadow and wait for 400 plus inch bulls to walk out every hunt but it is not like that.  These bulls are wild free ranging elk.  It is a real hunt.  The hunters face the same issues we all face such as drought conditions and poor rut activity. Many hunters choose not to fill their tags some years.

Yes these hunts cost a lot of money but we should all be mindful for all the great conservation work that is done on the San Carlos.  This would not happen if not for Dan. His generosity benefits the elk population as well as the population of the San Carlos who I consider my friends. It is the best place in the United States to hunt elk.  They limit the number of tags so the elk can reach maturity.
I think Dan and the San Carlos Department of Wildlife should be applauded for all the great work they do.

I applaud Dan for living the dream, and supporting many levels of elk conservation.
