430” bull or 45” wide buck?

[t_boneking]

Now they we have seen a post about a giant 430” bull and an incredible 45” wide buck which one would you rather shoot? I can’t make up my mind. I’m curious as to what others would rather shoot.

 

[twopointdn]

I would take the 45” buck. Elk hunting is secondary for me. I love hunting deer all the time and love hunting elk sometimes. Both are amazing animals but deer rule for me so the 45” buck gets my vote.

 

[elkantlers]

I would take that 430" bull in a second. To me it is a way more impressive critter.

I like big elk better than a big mule deer. We're talking a good 45" wide buck! I'm taking the buck!

Bull.....no question in my mind.

When you say equipment, Are you referring to governors tags and ton of money for the guides/outfitters?

 

[elkassassin]

Well!

That'd Be Part Of It I Guess!

What I Was Kinda referring To was:

The Vehicles I Use To Hunt With Ain't As Good As What Some Have & Use!

Helicopter?

 

[elkassassin]

There's Many Items I Don't Own Or Use!

But That Would Be The Number One item LIL BEAV That Would Get Me In The Most Trouble!

It'd Sure Be Fun For A Little While Though!

Then I'd Be In For An MM TRIAL/HANGING!

Helicopter?

My question is how do the Tax write offs work? Do you think all the gas used in the helicopter ? to kill these two great animals is a tax write off? How about the chopper itself? Is it classified in the same category as a Polaris Ranger?

Asking for a friend.

Chopper(s) booty, plural. Just making sure all the bases are covered

Makes perfect sense to me. Each of these beautiful specimen deserve their own chopper.

 

[BrowningRage]

I guess it depends on which one comes to the feeding truck first...

Also, what type of euthanasia do you use on a deer versus and elk.? Same type, just more of it for a bull.? I don't want any bullet holes in my trophy... (see the above mentioned photos in other threads)

All you knuckleheads are always forgetting all the conservationing some outfits due compared to you all

 

[BridgerMT]

My choice above ?

 

[Vanilla]

Either would be just fine. Both incredible specimens and unimaginable for me, really.

If I had to choose killing one or the other, I’d lean toward which ever one didn’t require me to violate laws to pursue and kill. And then I’d be very happy about either again.

 

[hossblur]

You knuckleheads all excited thinking you've finally got ole Wade.

Meanwhile Wades on the phone with the Air Force asking about a retired A-10, after Kalan told him there's no mention of an A-10 in the regs.

 

[Elkslayer]

I think wade could care less about antlered game, it's hounding that's his passion.
My opinion is all this lately is coming from the second in command at wlh.

I believe there is alit of truth to that.

Mule deer. Always wanted 1 big one. I don't need 20 of them. Just 1 really big one.
