It looks like they shot it 30 mins or so before it got dark. Of course there’s night pics involved. Almost impossible for there not to be night pics. Would have been past dark if I shot that bull. 30 mins worth of pics minimum. I don’t know why anyone would think that they waited to long to process it because there’s night pics.

Doesn’t matter how much mass the bull has. It’s still missing a ton of length to go almost 440. but I def want one like that for sure. I’ve never seen one that big myself. huge bull though. I’ll bet 500 bucks though that it doesn’t go over 430 all day long. Anyone want to take my 500 bucks on an independent scoring. ??

Amazing bull. Amazing mass ,, not enough length for mid 430s. At some point in time there needs to be some kind of independent verification on the scores of the gov bulls.. Absolute stud but at least 12 to 15 inches was added to the actual score, even with the velvet increase there’s no way. congrats to all involved though. What a sight to behold on the hoof. Congrats to the guide and hunter. 🤙

Which tag did you draw? The first or second rifle? Great hunt, but quality has declined over the last 10 years. Most herd bulls are 300 to 330 like most units. There’s always some really good ones though. I wouldn’t pass anything in the 350 range. I killed a 385 with my bow in 16 a a decade ago. Even then 300 to 330 was your likely herd bull sighting. I’d be over near the unit 23 boundary for the best bulls. If you have the second hunt I would shift your expectations down around 20 inches over the first hunt. Good luck man. 🤙

Hey bro camp with us. A good friend has the tag. I know the unit really well. We have one tag in camp and several really good dudes coming up to help. I’m sure you would be welcome in our camp. Pm me if your interested.

Bob, we met you on the way home from the bab. It was in Cameron driving from gas station to gas station trying to find one open. Your buck looks bigger in person than in the pics. Nice buck!

I agree. It wasn’t my tag. I was just helping a friend. He was super stoked with the bull. It was his first archery elk.

I was in 11m for the first hunt a total of 9 days. Was one of the worst elk hunts ive ever been on. Brutal more like it. Very little bugling. We killed a herd bull that had 42 cows and it wasnt even a 300 inch bull. Tells you something when a herd bull has that many cows, and isnt very big. We felt very blessed with the bull. It felt like the bull was 360 though with how hard it was . My first experience in 11 m was a let down. All hunters we ran into had the same story as ours. Everyone said last year was great though. Good luck.

Sent you a PM

There's some huge bucks in 3 b north. Found one a friend killed that went 85. It's been several years but you have to get in nice a close to the meth heads in that unit. Bulls also like the meth heads hang outs. Makes things interesting.
