Expo Tag Bull

[BLT]

LAST EDITED ON Sep-25-07 AT 10:33AM (MST) by browtine (moderator)[p]Thought you may enjoy some pics from Gary Rackmans elk hunt. He was the lucky expo tag winner.This bull was found on sunday of the opener, We sized him up and had a chance to look him over and decided to let him go, and extend the hunt a few more days, We looked at alot of bulls and after a few days of hunting, Gary told us that he liked the 8x8. We were able to relocate the bull on friday morning and make the long stalk, Gary took the heard bull with two well placed shots.Garys hunt was as about as good as it gets,Family, Friends,Great food and camping and a week of chasing bulls on one of the best units in the country... Thanks Gary,Scott,Waylon,Cassy,Chad,Jeremy,and Steve what a great time.......

BLT,

Congrats on another great bull and congrats to the hunter! I was under the impression this bull was pretty sweet and I was right! Nicely done!

 

[hntnelk]

Congrats Gary! Cound not have gone to a better guy! Remindes me alot of the Iverson bull of a few years ago. Great G3's. I am sure it was a hunt of a lifetime...

What a great bull !!!!! I am thrilled that no score has been mentioned or asked for. I wish more threads would do the same.

Congratulations to the hunter.

I agree 100%, I get so tired of hearing the "what did he score". Its just not important, if the hunter feels its big enough to shoot, then shoot away!!! Very nice looking Bull, he is a shooter for sure.

Congratulations to the luckiest guy I know, (at least when it comes to drawing tags!) I even rubbed his head for luck up at Expo, but it didn't do me any good. Oh well, good on you Gary! Very nice bull

That's a awesome bull like those 3rds.

 

[thepenquin]

Hell of a bull!!! Hey Paul, are you going to bring him back to life? I hope your still in the game if I ever have the success with a huge bull. I'm sending him your way if I do.

Congrats!

Nice bull!

I like the binos that the guy on the right is wearing.

 

[thepenquin]

Hee hee. The guy on the right is probably bitter like me cause like myself, he didn't draw the tag too? You can tell by the smile on his face that he is just tickled can't ya!? Ha! Awesome bull anyways guys!!!

 

[mulemanrack]

Thats all the binos that kid on the right needs! He can see more with his naked eyes than we can with our Swarovski's.

 

[mulemanrack]

Hey Penquin, now that you know who I am and now that we've had a chance to exchange points of view, I'll look forward to meeting you and shaking your hand at the expo in February. Yes Paul is doing Dad's bull and thanks for the compliment on it.

 

[huntinfreak]

Probably true.

No hard feelings though I was just funnin. Not trying to stir up anything I promise.

 

[BuckSkinner]

Great Bull, Great Dad.... Congrats to you!

LAST EDITED ON Oct-16-07 AT 11:31AM (MST)[p]Damn nice bull!!! Those 3rds are unreal!!! What an awesome hunt that would have been part of!!! Congrats!!

Those binos mentioned look like the same ones I used for a lot of years, up to 2 years ago!! I spotted a lot of animals with them over the years!! I know you were just pooking fun at the binos, it's just funny to hear someone make fun of them when it seems like yesterday that my parents bought them for me!! It's been over 15 years ago!!
My 8yr. old daughter uses them now!! And she's doing great with them!!





Work to hunt!! Live to hunt!! And the rest spent keeping the wife happy!!

 

[jmcenulty]

Congrats

 

[doublebrow]

I heard that this bull will be at the expo in February. Can anyone verify this?

 

[mulemanrack]

Yes, this bull will be at the 2008 Expo.....Paul Penny is finishing it up and will have it at his display in the main hall where you pay to get in to Convention.
