Governor's tag

[270Flat]

I heard a bull was shot this week here around my home town (close to town) 400”+ using an outfitter from Oregon. Haven’t seen photos or seen the animal but reliable source from around here said it happened. Anyone know anything?

[Pinetar]

I got a picture of a big beautiful six killed by a lady that said Walla Walla but no story behind it.

The Governor/Auction tag is unfilled still

[LDennis24]

Pics, we need pics

It is a big 6.  I was told it was the Oregon Governor tag.

[270Flat]

That makes sense… I was told governor's tag and now the location tracks with Oregon.

Pics or it didn’t happen…

Whiskey tango foxtrot! Someone has the pic

I seen the governor tag bull, looks to be right at 400ish, also seen the SE raffle tag bull right at 430 will more than likely be the new typical record state bull

[Pathfinder101]

I have a photo of a guy with a 420" bull that was killed three weeks ago, about 100 yards from where I killed mine.  I was told it was one of the raffle tags, but could have been the Gov's Tag I guess (I don't know the guy).  The guy that took the picture thought he was seeing a poacher, took some pics and called the game warden.  Game Warden told him he knew all about it and it was a legal raffle tag.
Sorry, can't post the full face pic (I don't know the guy and don't have permission).

Just a guess, but I imagine you won’t be seeing any of those bulls now or in the future on here after the last two weeks!

Ya I’m betting any and all picture privileges have been revoked for HW.

Ha, can't believe it took this long to show up on here.  It's the SE raffle tag bull.....He is staying silent and waiting for the drying period to end to see if it is the new Typical State record.

He's not on social media and not looking to boast about his hunt.  Great guy and amazing bull....No picture would do it justice.  He passed it several times thinking it was a 380-390' bull.

Really?
Was it really HW that was the problem?
Looks like Rokslide, Monter Muleys, and numerous other forums/message boards all had/have multiple page threads about that bull.

Who posted it on their own social media?

And from tracking posts and checking up on it I noticed alot of the mud slinging on HW came from people getting "first hand" information from other sites like mentioned above. I would love to see the bull if anyone has a pic. Apparently the Oregon raffle tag holder shot his bull on the Washington side. So he's in big doodoo. 2 seperate cases of elk being shot on the Washington side by an Oregon hunter this year down there.

 Yes, nice guy and great bull.

Someone shared a couple images with me. Confirming, does the Governor's tag bull have a "unique feature" opposite his G3 on his right antler?

The Oregon hunters issues? Just heard it from the fish and game guys. No details as it's on the prosecutors desk as we speak. Just know it happened and he confirmed it.

 I don’t think a description of a drop tine is secret squirrel stuff.

Probably because his kid didn't jump on every social media platform and post pictures

[nwhunter]

The auction tag hunter killed his bull Dec 30 and ya its a cool drop tine bull scores just over 400.. And yes he knew about the giant infamous  bull that was killed prior to that but opted to avoid the drama.. Some giant bulls hit the dirt this year in Washington..

Knew about it .........  before, or after it was killed. 
I read this both ways    Just curious

Can somebody please tell me why you would take a picture of somebody else's elk through a spotting scope and post it on this site???

"to avoid the drama" ........by not hunting it,         or        not posting about the one he shot?   

Both make sense, just curious still.

It wasn’t a top secret the last several days of December where the giant bull was at but due to its urban location it would be next to impossible
to kill with a firearm and not be crucified for it even if it was completely legal... Definitely a hard decision to make with that caliber of bull but seems the hunter was correct.

Isn't the pic he's referencing posted on page 1 of this thread? I feel like Joe Biden trying to keep up with these elk threads the last couple weeks... where am I?

Yeah, but it’s in reference to this hunt. https://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,290256.msg3947840.html#msg3947840

I was just thinking he’d get a better answer posting it in there.

[Pathfinder101]

The spotting scope pic has been removed.  everyone was speculating on a particular bull.  I had pictures of the bull but did not want to show the hunter's face.  The hunter has since come on Hunt Wa and posted pictures of the bull and removed all speculation.  No reason for the picture to stay up.

[LDennis24]

Was this in Cle Elum?

[Rainier10]

The photo removed was not the governor tag bull it was the SE combo raffle bull.

I want to see the president's tag bull I heard it was a monster.

How are you privileged enough to get a picture I was told he forgot he shot it and he lost all the pictures

President's tag bull must be shot with a nerf dart gun. 
Part of a national initiative...
