I took pic in my driveway. It's the Gore Range. Bull killed in South Park. Bobby is all cleaned up because he took a shower. Day after bull was killed. Officially scored at 194 Net even. 56 1/4 wide when shot 55 1/2 when scored. Smokes the current world record. That should answer most of...

There are way too many "back door" men lurking around here. It's collusion between Latturner and the CPW in an effort to get more hits for the MM website and increase advertising rates. The shared revenue will be a new fundraiser for the CPW and help offset the cost of rising pickup trucks.

Symantics maybe but I would say its pretty jacked up if it wasn't fixed this week and the elk wasn't done too. Re-doing the draw?.....they probably won't re-assign draw numbers which dictate the order in which peoples names are drawn. But a few days ago I had a license on file for deer in my...

I heard (unconfirmed) no non-residents drew tags and that would be a very big bummer if you don't live here. Dont worry though. CPW depends on your money for new pickup trucks so they will re-do it and the world will be filled with rainbows, happy clouds, ice cream cones and unicorns. I'm...

This was a damn entertaining read.

I'm 6'-7" and 255 and the buck is field dressed in the photo so he is missing an extra 40-50 lbs and he still dwarfs me. I had Larry put this shot up to illustrate the point of how big these bucks can be in the body. I thought this buck was 27-28 and mid 180's on the hoof. The buck in the...

You're asking a rhetorical question. :)

For those who haven't experienced the size of Colorado Plains bucks first hand, it might be hard to comprehend how truly huge these bucks can be in the body. Most mature deer are easily 300 live weight and a few break 350 with ease, especially pre-rut. This buck appears to go over 350 with...

He'll net 195-198 too. He is an extra wide basket rack configuration. With the curve of his tines and G-2s he has alot of length and those measurements are deep on the beam. Of course that's just my opinion....I could be wrong.

Bucks where he was photographed are the biggest bodied deer I have ever seen. He is a monster in the body even for there. I say 36-37

My point is that buck was probably born wild and humans f---ed it up. Thats what I mean by that buck didn't ask for it. Because it's Mexico it's the perfect petri dish for experimenting to totally bastardize legitimate fair chase hunting. Thumbs down to those who thinks its OK. It's not. I...

Think the Burris buck ever ate protein pellets out of a feeder,walked inside anything other than 3 strand, was tranquilized, was hog-tied and blind folded? Probably not. That Mexican buck didn't ask for that nonsense. Sugar-coating a freaking turd is what defending this is.

3 year old baby giant in the making

Congrats on a heckova bull!!!

Hellova bull and hellova hunt. Congrats on an adventure of a lifetime.

500 bucks per team is too expensive especially considering the prizes. I'm sure some of the "pro-staffers" will have their entries payed by sponsers but working class dudes are unlikely to shell out 5 big ones to fill spots.

Looks like you have been "puttin' the boots to it" there Josh. Nice work.

If they were found in UT, I would say 400!!!!!!!!! Anywhere else 380ish give or take. Freakin' hell-of-a bull and a damn nice find this day and age. Congrats!

I had a couple people ask me what NIMBY means and it is an oft used acronym for the phrase "Not In My Back Yard". Its usually reserved for those living by a proposed landfill or nuclear waste dump but I just threw it in there as an obscure reference. If your a Utard and don't know what...

that would work

Yeh, Chris I do have the sack to reply and more because it doesn't bother me to engage you or others. I don't have any anger towards you and certainly don't carry it with me but I do have a really good memory for certain things, like your posts, picturesand how you constantly refer to yourself...

Drew you make it so easy to shoot down what you have to say because your opinion is based on nothing more than that of an Eagle County resident that is pissed because the world has changed and not for the better. Yes I do remember when you could draw 44 every other year but here are some real...

Sorry I can't respond to everything thrown about out there in a timely fashion that pleases people to the degree to where they don't have to start lumping me in the same class as a convicted criminal because I have written a few articles for Eastmans, entered 3 bucks in B&C and helped out a good...

Eastern Colorado is kick ass on the right land and right unit. Yuma county is one of the best producers of B&C nontyps anywhere in the West and I know of 3 bucks 225 or better from the plains last fall. Front range is a damn good place to photograph park and city bucks but most huntable ground...

Better have a long leash. He's a hound at heart.

So you didn't rent a tame mountain lion to follow you around the hills in order to get Brent to take these shots???????????? Just kidding Rod. What will be interesting will be the story attached to these when they start making the rounds and become another internet urban legand. "Man who...

No biggee Jerry. You can write whatever you want. I will say of all the bucks I have ever spent watching and photographing in the last 23 years in COlorado and that is an absolute huge number, I can only think of a couple that dissappeared mysteriously in what I thought was strangely unusual...

+1 for Aaron Great leases but call him in a hurry because you will need you points for a great hunt. 180 is a nice reasonable number and there are bigger deer so its not top end. I know Aaron had a 240 plus buck and a 220 buck on his leases last year but both are dead. There are good bucks...

Funniest chit I have seen here in a long time. Are there other issues?

This thread has apparently turned into somewhat of a sounding board for solutions regarding quality and quantity of COlorado deer hunting. Like Whiskeyman said, its not all that bad here in Colorado relative to other states. Problem is deer hunting in many other states is bad to horrendous...

Here's another point to ponder that isn't great news for year if you have a whole pile of points. There is no longer a reasonable or direct correlation between points required to draw a hunt and the quality you can expect. The information age has skewed this perspective by putting value on...

I've been watching some of the advice and requests about where to burn a boatload of points on Colorado mule deer this year. I thought I would throw my .02$ in the mix and take it for what its worth but it is worth considering. No alterior motive here, just boredom on a snowy morning waiting to...

You seem to know everything about every big bull unit in the state and half of the deer units and you're looking for information on a stupid-ass turkey????? GEEEZUS KID!

Great post. I call them "mini rams". Have a pic of a group of 4 with one lil' fella in the group that I will have to dig up. What's really neat is when you see the opposite. A big ol' slug that looks even bigger when he has a group of others around him for comparison.

Obviously this column and movie strikes a cord with many. Kudos to Ryan Hatfield for putting pen to paper and writing down some great thoughts on an epic movie. Well done Ryan.

Super clean and accurate looking mounts Paul....well done!

Nice job Paul. I've cut enough cedar firewood to know that the base those things are sitting on is going to need a whole posse' to move it. Geeezzus!

Picked up a copy of this from the MM store and have to say I really enjoyed this DVD more than any elk film I have seen. Well done BTO crew. I would have liked to see slightly longer clips in the monster bull video compilation segment in the middle of the film. What a bunch of kick-ass...

I think he set the world record for most magazine covers from one buck and also the coolest hair. Freakin' awesome buck!

That is what monster bucks look like at 2-3 years old. He could be something special someday and hopefully live long and get whomped by someone who appreciates him in about 3-4 years.
