I wonder what class bulls these are? 250 or 290? I am going on my first bow elk hunt this fall and would shoot one half the size of these

He is under 300" but he is by far the most special I've taken because I was fortunate enough to have all my grandson's with me on the mountain that night.

Driver's side is pretty nice but the other was funky with a club at the base with a sword and a dropper. Probably just under that if both were similar. As is, way under, LOL!

Unless you live where they live any legal bull is a great bull. I use to hold out but I had a long dry spell. Now anything legal brings a smile.

Day three of my 3rd elk hunt in 2007. Bugled this Colorado bull to 27 yards. Feel very fortunate to have arrowed three bulls on my first three DIY elk hunts.
Then I got picky....enough said.

I have been fortunate to have chased & killed a few Elk. In over 60 years of bowhunting a wide variety of biggame ELK, ANY ELK gets me more excited than anything. I was never a horn hunter & as I said, any Elk was my target..

His wallow. It was deep!
Yeah, I watched him wallow for about 10 minutes and at times the only part of him sticking out of the mud was his antlers, he even buried his face in it. He was a disgusting mess to skin! Never again... unless he's over 350"...
