Utah Hawwg

Post by NHS »

Check out this amazing bull that was taken last week down on the Boulder Mountains. This guy did this himself, a true DIY hunt. Utah is producing some amazing bulls. The only problem is the 30 year wait to draw a tag! :(

What a Bull!

What did he score? Looks close to or over 400.

It is a blessing and a curse to have such big elk roaming the hills. Everyone who draws the limited entry tags expects to shoot a 380+ bull. More and more hunters are concerned with the score of the animal and fail to appreciate the experience and thrill of the hunt. I would be tickled pink to harvest any branch antlered bull. But the big ones sure are fun to look at! :jive:

Not to mention $$ PRICEY $$

How can you NOT mount that for a wallhanger?

Personally - I would love to take a big bull......................BUT you can't eat the horns! Cow Elk taste just as good!

You can't eat the antlers, but a slab of meat looks awful on the wall......................

There was another elk taken in Southern Utah that grossed over 440". When the pictures are released I'll post one here. Lots of big elk falling this year.

Thats the one!!! It looks like Doyle and the gang released the picture. There is a picture floating around that one of his guides took with his cell phone. I must say, the professional photo does it more justice. :eek: Here is the cell phone picture:
