Nice elk, but I hate forced prospective pictures, and I think less of the people who take them or are in them when it comes to hunting/fishing pictures.

I hate photo Nazis. If you know elk, or any other big game animal, you know that you can't make a dink look huge to guys that really hunt.

Blow me fayget, and shove your buzz word up yer arse. While I agree that people can tell when an animal is large or small based on other features other than body size, there is no need to used force prospective with an already large animal. He is easily 2+ feet from this animal( outstretched arm to grab antlers, upward camera angle). He could have easily sat right behind it's ribcage and we would still think it's large elk, without him using ELKZILLA tactics.

Damn that’s a nice bull! Fat bastard to boot.

The world record was 442 3/8 killed by John Plute in Dark Canyon Colorado. That stood for like 100 years or so IIRC...so yeah it's a dink....🤣

Sal,
is this an archery bull?
I don't follow the regs down there so I don't know if muzzleloader/ rifle is open yet.
I have pics of some nice Modoc bulls taken recently, but none look that good.

At least he doesn't have that chit-eatin' grin they usually have. I hate the optical illusion hunting photo's, too.

The elk roam on and off the property but the "Ranch" is like a Five Star Four Seasons for wild life. Meaning you can leave but why. They spend big money on habitat development that benefits not only big game but all wild life in and around that property.

Agreed, and that's why the FP is even more ridiculous than normal.

Hell of a bull. Must be a green score. A 60 day drying period would put the bull in velvet.

Was curious about the ranch and Googled up some info. Apparently some introduced elk escaped years back and now a small wild herd lives in the area. They wander on and off the ranch. State issues some land owner permits. Looks like a cool hunt.
The Roland Martin photos don’t bother me. Give me a chuckle if anything. That bull is a hoss no matter where the fella is sitting.
