Wolf tag punched!

ihuntelk · Nov 26, 2012

My good friend and filming buddy, Carson, was able to take this awesome Idaho wolf a week or so ago. I'll post more pics/story/video as we release them................

Carson and his father, Sid, were stalking a 6pt bull they had glassed 3 hours earlier. It had fed into a patch of conifers in the middle of a burn and they couldn't find it. They maneuvered up the ridge to glass better into the patch and this wolf came out heading the other way. Carson made a great shot just before it disappeared behind a ridge for good.

Joy-ride!

Here's our FB page with a little more info......

Pass it on to the real conservationsists out there and give us some support from the crazy enviros!

Thanks!

Very cool congrats to him. That wolf doesn't look real big how much do you est. it weighed?

great job on the wolf! Right place at the right time.

Sweet that is a better trophy than a 6pt bull anyway. Would love to add one to my collection congrats to the hunter.

LAST EDITED ON Nov-26-12 AT 01:47PM (MST)[p]Jarhead-
it is a 5 year old female. Weighed just under 100 pounds. I've had a reliable source look at all the weights recorded (Idaho, Montana and Wyo) since the western states started shooting wolves - 134 pounds is the largest RECORDED. Might be a few bigger but not by much. All these crazy internet pics of 200 pounders are pure BS.

Carson should have set up his pics a little better, but at 5, it's still a mature wolf.

Awesome, I agree with you 100% on the wolf weights!

Let me guess, you drive a 1 ton with oak trees for smoke stacks, 12" lift kit and 40" tires to pull a single place lawn mower trailer? See Zeke for prime example....

Awesome job! We don't need wolves.

Very cool, neat looking wolf! I agree as well on the average weights. Thanks for posting up!

Awesome! I would take that over most 6 points! They should give out free bull tags to anyone who kills a wolf.

Very cool thanks for the response. Not saying I wouldn't of shot it by no means. I think it prob is just the angle of the pic. I bet if he was holding it up like most people do it would appear a lot bigger. Congrats again.

Nice DEAD bag of fur! Thats the way I like to see them. Thanks for saving some more wildlife!

WyoXtec · Nov 27, 2012

Excellent!

Nice pics as well.

Hope to break into the wolf club soon!

Emptyfossil · Nov 27, 2012

BullElk -
it came out of the Sawtooth Wolf Zone. Unit 39.
The usual elk spot burned crisp this summer and so Carson was trying a few new areas. Right Place at the Right Time is absolutely correct!
