My CWMU Bull

So here you guys go. Here is are some pics of the bull i killed this friday morning on the cwmu. We hunted for 6 days and passed on A LOT of really good bulls. I also passed several bulls at 12 yards and less. We just could not get on some of the bigger bulls we found earlier in the week. I had a blast though and ended up with this very nice old feller. So heres the story. Friday morning we decided to go to a location we had scouted the night before. We did not see as many bulls in this location as the other one we were hunting, but the bulls we did see, seemed to be a little bigger on average. So friday morning we waited till the sun started to come up enough for us to get up ontop and not bump anything. we walked a ways and heard the bulls bugling ahead of us. They had not crossed the road we were parked on, which is what we were hoping for. We ran back to the truck and headed up the road a bit further. When we got to a good vantange point we could here the bulls coming and see the cows crossing the road about 200 yards ahead of us. We went ahead and got the 338 lapua set up. We were watching a good size herd of bulls heading down a hill and across the road. Stinky was watching the bulls in the road and i saw this big guy coming down the hill. I knew that instant that he was the one i wanted. He appeared to have long beams and no broken tines. He was definatly "the boss" of the herd. I told stinky, "thats the one i want, im shooting him" well, stinky only had a second to see him before he disappeared in the bottom. I went ahead and started watching the place all the elk were crossing through my scope. about 5 minutes or what felt like 6 hrs later, this big guy came busting outta the bushes and horned a couple of rag horns. Well all the while bessy and clint are standing there watching and waiting. Stinky was telling me "dont shoot that one, dont shoot the one on the right, watch out for that cow....blah blah blah.....i wasnt listening. He stepped out, and turned with his butt to me but slightly at an angle looking over his left shoulder at me, and BOOM! or is should say "pop" and it was all over. I lost sight of him in the scope, and all the guys are yelling hes down, its over! I was yelling are you sure and they were saying yes.... He dropped. He never moved a muscle, or twitched or kicked. It was AWESOME!!!! We went over to him and he was laying right there, on the side of the road. Needless to say, it was an easy pack job for the boys.

QT,
Gorgeous bull there girl!!! Hats off to you ...... in many ways, not the least of which was to tune out ole what's his name and do your thing. Hmmm....one shot?? That IS better than the Stinkbug....just what I expected. Way to go....and congrats!!!!!
Your favorite boyfriend,
LCE
 
Great Bull and good shooting.You guys sure saw alot of great bulls down there,wish you could got that big one you all was chasing.Still pretty cool to take on on the road. I always say the best elk in the one closest to the road. But Now Stinky got his money worth on his tag he shoot like what 15 times so dollar per shot it was a better deal. LOL


"I have found if you go the extra mile it's Never crowded".
 
one thing i must add is the fact that shes just like me. she could care less about score. we saw a big 6x7 the night before. our guide was very experienced in scoring bulls and said "that big one will go 380 at the very least". well i thought he was kinda ugly but qtpie loved him (the bull not the guide). we lost him in the dark and decided we knew where he was heading and figured we would be back in he morning to kill him. we'll there we were the next morning. I was all eyes for that 6x7 when qt said i want that one. i looked over and saw the mass and shape of the rack and knew he was a much prettier bull than the 6x7. i had to agree with qt that he definitely needed a bullet far more than the other. i knew he wouldnt score as much but he looked like a toad and was twice the bull as the 6x7. i was tickled by the fact that she hunts for big animals just like me and doesnt look for score. i tried score hunting all week. i would see a bull that excited me and then me and the guides would pick him apart to the point it wasnt exciting. i mean heck our guide would look at a bull and say "he has a weak g10". i think qt was with me that friday. we both decided "to heck" with score hunting. lets go find and slam something that "looks" big. The final tally on the tape stretched just under 361" for those of u concerned with score. the only thing i scored right on the spot was his 41" inside spread and his 59" of mass. heck, his last mass measurement was 6 1/2"! boy did that bull ever look good coming through the trees! i do have to give a big hats off to doyle moss for hooking us up with clint black! that guy was an awesome guide. knows his crap and does nothing but have a great friggin time. its always awesome hunting with good people. sorry terra about clint. she was sorely dissapointed when she saw him and realized he wasnt a country singer. (and im not lying when i say that) lol

good job babe!

btw..... cordell, aka cow. u said we would kill when u weren't there but if u woulda got ur lazy butt outa bed u coulda been there lol.

We met some Great Hunters/Guides,some I already knew & some I didn't know.

I think rutnbuck got tired of my crap after a fashion,but we were looking for big stinky's in places nobody else was looking hoping to find Mr. Big,at times we were so low in the Desert the Lizzards were packing canteens!:D
Actually had a great time with rut,we exchanged Lies nearly the whole time we were there,lol!(Problem is they were not Lies!)
We scattered his Camera one day and then a couple days later we scattered his Bino's,sorry rut!
Don't know what it is when you got to a Cafe with rut?
You ever waited 2-1/2 hours for a Burger?
If you haven't just take rut in to a Restaurant,said he wasn't very hungry when we went in,he was damn sure hungry the time his food showed up,lol!:D

Good Times!

Awesome!! Congrats on a great bull, that is my dream bull....mass all the way through....score is useless, he will look awesome on the wall. Good job by the whole team, wives are pretty good at tuning us out when it matters...

Great bull and story! Way to show them how to shoot. One shot next to the road, you can't beat that! Congratulations on a job well done!
 
Super nice bull, sounds like you had the right crew with you to get it done! Great story...had the same experience with the wifes Monroe archery hunt:)! Minus a dead elk but still fun!!

?The bugle of the bull elk echo?s through the pines, the north wind moans her lonesome lullaby, he hungers for the freedom of an eagle as she flies?somewhere beyond the great divide?
 
They are both real!
We had some Camp-Meat Buck & Bull while we were there!:D

I love not acting my age,
Damn I love my NASCAR race,
And Hell yes I love my Truck!
 
What fun and what a great bull! Way to function Qtpie/Stinky!

After shooting that gun if I was you I would just tell stinky it yours and he can go find another one.


"I have found if you go the extra mile it's Never crowded".
 
Gator,
Trust me....that gun is hers. She may let him use it every once in a while, but it's hers. He has to buy the ammo though....since he uses most of it.

You just TRY to take it away from her.....she CAN shoot it I promise!
 
This thread is a fun read. Congratulations on a great hunt and a fine bull.

Before you die.....Take time to live
 
That picture of QTPIE holding the gun makes up for the one of Stinky in his wife beater. I had to hunt with him while he wore a Nebraska Cornhuskers hat, I guess at least he did not have a tube top on.
 
ok so i got bull fever once upon a time. so shoot me. lol. u guys are brutal.

qtpie may be able to pose with my gun but she can never make it sing like i do. me and that gun see eye to eye.

dont worry guys shes only a poser.... thats one tool she will never fully master. just way too much stick for her ability!

hey rut n bessy i forgot to say thanks to u guys. u guys busted ur hump scouring the desert looking for that elusive giant. i just knew u would turn up some good bulls but u never did. thats just the way it goes. u know whats better than that? u guys got to stay for eight days in that cabin and eat 3 squares a day and all i had to pay for was the food and spring creek bought half of that. jeff nielson with spring creek took care of me and my guest and we had a great time. i hope to se u two ol nursing home escapees on more of my future hunts. thanks a million.

btw bessy and rut..... at what age do i start fartin dust like you two?

Well stinkbug,
We looked in places nobody else was looking,thinking we might find the BIG STINKY hiding out in that lower country but to no avail,We found several Bulls but just not what we were looking for,rut wasn't to impressed with me when I called them two 50" Bulls in!:D

Well stinkbug,after the morning hunts were perty much done do to excessive hot temperatures and after the Elk had bedded down & after Breakfast we kept pounding places & stirring dust,1,700 miles worth to be exact,checking places & water where nobody else was stupid enough to look,guaranteed there's a GIANT Bull in that Desert somewhere but we didn't find him.

Still an Awesome hunt,to hunt 6 days non-stop for MR BIG and still take a Bull like QTPie did the last day,ya just can't beat that!

After I left you two I spent another 2 days up on the Juan,what a Circus that was,F'n Wheelers everywhere,after inhaling dust there for a couple days you gotta exhale some dust you know?}>}>}>


I love not acting my age,
Damn I love my NASCAR race,
And Hell yes I love my Truck!
 
Heck why didn't you say you wanted us to find you a big bull. We were busy doing serious stuff! Like playing checkers,bird watching and trying to figure out how to keep from getting lost. We had a GPS but didn't know how to use it.
Give me 5 minutes with a monkey and I could teach him how to find a big bull if that is all you wanted. Besides that everytime we went in to the trees there was this whistling growling bugle noise that scared the hell out of us.
Stinky and Bess PM me your address and I will get you a copy of the pics I took. I tried to email pics bess but it said your mailbox was full.
Isn't it about time for your cookies, blankey, and nap Stink?


Rut.
 
Not a bad bull! They sure look better if you don't shoot half the points off.:)

rutnbuck and BBop. Will you guys take me elk hunting some day? Only I would like to hunt a ranch that has WILD elk. I don't want to shoot the rancher's pet right next to the road.:)

Let me know.

Eel
 
Hey eel!
You get the Tag & We'll take you for a ride!:D
And just think eel,if you had a big Bull in the back of your truck,You'd slow all the traffic as you went through SLC and then you wouldn't be SKEERED drivin through there!:D}>:D}>

I love not acting my age,
Damn I love my NASCAR race,
And Hell yes I love my Truck!
