No trophys but we did it again. 8 hunters filled 10 tags including both either sex tags getting filled with bulls. My son took a 6 point, nothing great but a good one for the area.
I know there will be doubters but they were all taken on opening day, before 2:30 PM and on public land. One of the hunters (15 years old) had 2 cow tags and one had an either sex and a cow. I know my dad, me, my son and at least 3 of my partners each saw over 100 head. There was one herd of over 80 elk and 2 other herds with over 40 in them that got chased across the side of the canyon we hunt. The big herd had over 20 bulls in it. Ran into 2 other hunters that had seen 6 or more bulls but had yet to fill their cow tags. Awesome.
I have pictures of his bull and 40 quarter bags filling up our camp. I think there are some good pictures of us packing the elk out on horses too. Just need my son to show me how to transfer the pics to my computer and then I'll post.
