Any early trail cam pics? I am excited to see what is out there this year with all the water. Put up a bunch of camera's on the Manti on Saturday but will not get a chance to check them for at least two weeks.
Hey I finally drew my tag and want to talk to some of you guys that have hunted the unit before. My wife drew Mussy tag 4 years ago and we hunted the northern part of the unit. I know that area fairly well but I am interested in learning more about the south. Any of you guys that have hunted...
I am known to defer the first shot to my hunting partner. I even once called in a 65+ in Alaska Moose to 50 yards and passed so my good buddy elknut could have a chance at him the next day. I am sure there will be plenty of packin to go around. I am sure we will have a blast getting after the...
I sure hope so. I know the unit very well. My wife had a Muzzy tag on Pahvant 3 years ago and she smoked a nice bull. I can hardly wait to get out in the hills and start taking pictures...
Pahvant any weapon. 17 points burned. My dad burned his 17 points as well. We did not put in together hoping to draw on different years so we could help each other. Oh well we will have a September to remember :)
Finally drew my tag!!!!! My son turns 17 this year and I have waited his entire life to draw my tag. Cool thing is that my dad also drew this year. He has put in each year since Utah started the draw and has never drawn an elk tag... This will be a September to remember!!!
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...

elknut and I are both from Utah. We went with a transporter that supplied us with our camp and boats to float the river as well as air transportation from a small village in western Alaska. Had a blast in Alaska but hated to miss my son's first bull. I left my son in good hands...
My 14 year old son Hunter... that's right his name is Hunter... took this bull on the Utah Youth Bull Elk Hunt. After 5 day's of hard hunting Hunter took this bull at 100 yards with a double lung shot with his grandpa's 7mag. Grandpa was nice enough to guide him while I was hunting Moose in...
Had a blast with elknut on this trip. Hardest hunt ever but worth ever bit of pain for these two beautiful bulls. Fortunately we have very understanding wives...
My son shot this 5point bull the morning I arrived home from Alaska. I arrived at the trailhead just in time to load him in the...
Had a great trip with elknut! You are welcome for passing your bull at 100 yards the night before so you could get a crack at that monster... Hardest but funest hunt ever... Can not wait to see your wife's Utah MZ bull. I wish I had more time off so I could be down there with you. I will...
I agree with nut... I would like to see more elk hunting opportunity in UTAH. I would not change the Limited Entry system at all but let the guys that want to spend more time pursuing the elk in the spike and open bull areas get after it. I would much rather spend my time chasing the elk in...

Congrats......... What a bull. It pays to take your time. He is going to look great on the wall! Can't wait to hear the story. I hope I can get a shot at one like him on the open bull mz hunt.
