game hntr Report post Posted September 29, 2009 I found this one this morning and probably is dead for like 2-3 weeks. I'm thinking if i should go back in couple weeks and just take the rack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GameHauler Report post Posted September 29, 2009 You better wait a whole lot longer than 3 weeks to recover that rack or you could be in DEEP DoDo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RAM Report post Posted September 30, 2009 My uncle found a good bull a couple of days before the archery elk hunt. He wasn't sure what to do so he took a G&F officer to the sight. The officer brought a metal detector and ended up not being able to determine the cause of death. My uncle asked the officer if he could have the skull and rack since he found it, he was told no. Great find, but I would wait just a little bit. -Ryan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They will go there to take a look at it sometimes this week I already call them and give them coordinates and if they can investigate it.. then probably i can keep the rack.
