Elk of a lifetime

[nrpate05]

Not sure what this would score because I’ve never measured one before but it’s my biggest so far. As a guess I’m thinking 240 to 260 based on other bulls I’ve seen that people have posted before. I’m pretty new to elk hunting so I fall into the first legal bull i see I’m going to try and put a tag on it category. If any of you have a better guess at the score let me know what you think.

Wouldn't worry about a score, those brow tines are ridiculous!

My best so far in a CO OTC unit. 6x6. Would've been a 6x7 but broke off a split brow at some point.
Never put tape to him.
Hope to see one better sometime, but tickled with him if he ends up being the best for me...

Just a touch over 360 gross. The great mass really carries the score. View attachment 383750View attachment 383751View attachment 383752

That is an exceptional bull for that unit.

Wife’s best bull.

By far the biggest bull I've ever killed. 11.5 years old, killed in november and still has a bit of velvet on it. Very unsymetrical. ~315" gross. Has 30+ points of deductions. @jtm307 was with me and he killed a bull about an hour before I killed this one. We saw a mountain lion earlier in the day and got some good pics. One of the best days I've had of hunting.

I got my first/biggest bull ever that day, a day that'll be tough to beat for sure.

The elk of a lifetime in our house is my wife's she took on a Utah tag that she was first alternate on when someone turned it back in.

I’ve been pretty lucky and have killed quite a few elk. This one is one of my favorites.we busted our asses killed him second from last day in an absolute shit hole. About 20 min after this picture was taken he only had one main beam as I decided I wasn’t worth trying break him down in a rock face and gave him the boot and when he stopped rolling he was missing a main beam. Ow ya Oregon rosie

Looks like you got him on a rare dry day for OR Roosevelt hunting

Mule Deer Buck of a Lifetime

I find myself thinking about what a true lifetime mule deer buck is anymore, especially in some states where the mule deer hunting is so poor. There are a lot of hunters out there, and I wonder what the biggest deer is that they will kill in their lives. Luck can play a big role for sure...

Whitetail Buck of a Lifetime

It's been so cool to see all the mule deer bucks posted here: https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/mule-deer-buck-of-a-lifetime.330091/ I thought it would be cool to see a similar thread for whitetails. My best, 171".

Let’s do it with elk and make people lose sleep at night thinking about their hunts coming up.

Isn’t it great how us hunters manage to turn any conversation around to hunting! Lol
