Wow Only wish I could shoot a bull like that someday. Just Wow
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

Two really nice ones. Think of the muscles and neck strength to carry those antlers all day, not to mention fighting with them.

Dang Don, you need to work on your nephew and get him to get you in on the easy plains elk hunt.
Nice bulls

There are some really big bulls out on the plains. Elk used to be a plains animals and hunters forced them into the high country. The hard part is getting access since it is all private property and most of it is leased up by outfitters for big deer. One of the biggest bulls I ever saw growing up in CO was along the Republican River near Wray.
You get out of life what you are willing to accept. If you ain't happy, do something about it!

Colorado runs those eastern plain hunts Sept 1 thru Jan 31 either sex. No point restrictions There are more and more elk every year, east of I -25. Problem being either paying big bucks trespass or getting permission to hunt private.
About the only Wildlife area that is half way huntable that I know of is the west end of John Martin SWA .The come and go off private land and go down in the thick river bottom during the day. South side of the river is private and they do pretty good there
If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

This internet stuff is weird, I saw jay scott post a live pic of the dead bull, alive.
Today I saw a pic of a guided bull by a member that would NEVER go on a guided hunt ever… just strange.
