Flatlander Report post Posted August 16, 2013 There are some giants in Mormon lake every year. Those bulls don't run all the way down there from Units 9&10 to stand in that mud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirRoyal Report post Posted August 16, 2013 Funny the biggest bulls you have every seen are in 6A. Some of you guys need to expand your horizons. Where we hunt its all about quality not quanity. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
6ANut Report post Posted August 16, 2013 Sir don't take this the wrong way but I have been hunting in other units and 6a holds its own. Those units that are managed for trophy bulls should have 380-400 class bulls all over. With 6a in the last 5 to 10 years I have seen a decrease in the quality of bulls, I feel due to the increase number of tags but their are still some trophy class bulls that wander 6a. To be honest a trophy is in the eye of the beholder the spike I killed last year will be my favorite trophy. Good luck to all in every unit, for every season, for every animal possible. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ruthunter Report post Posted August 27, 2013 I still remember that bull Ruthunter, the mass is unreal! Wasn't he a real old bull? A true 6a giant! Yes at the time the taxidermist said that his neck measurement was the largest circumfrance measurement he had ever seen. The bull also had no ivorys left.

wildcat Report post Posted September 15, 2013 Is it going slow for anyone else here in 6a? I've barely been hearing bugles and haven't seen many elk at all. I did manage to glass up a big bull from a long ways off and got some pics. It's blurry but you can make out the antlers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KaibabHunter Report post Posted September 15, 2013 I got back last night after 9 days scouting/ deer hunting. Very few bugles in the morn/evening but tons of fresh sign. I was in 4 different parts of the unit and narrowed it down to 2 to hunt. Rain caused every draw and road into streams and mosquitoes were thick but still found a good number of elk. I do have a backup bull located but hoping for something a little better. This bull was pushing cows a little and was tolerating a raghorn as long as he didn't get too close. Hopefully it picks up. We start huntin Wed evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest wdenike Report post Posted September 15, 2013 6aNut, You sure have some beautiful pictures!!!! Wanted to ask ya a question. In one of those pictures I noticed what appeared to be a pair of Dunham Duraflex boots someone was wearing. Ya sure don't see them very often in Arizona. Are you all native Arizonians?? Seeing those boots were sorta a blast from the past. I'll just say I have a few miles logged in those boots. Take care, Willie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
