Boy this guy is taking a beating from jealous folks on fb

 

What an animal.
Haters will always hate.

 

Outstanding

 

Grrr... he shot my elk 🤬

 

Could have used another year. At least a youth hunter didn’t get it.

 

Lol. Wow, did you see that picture? The antlers are shoved into the camera lens so expertly that they are twice as tall as a full grown man! I hope some real pictures come out in the future.

 

You shoot an elk that big you can have one of the blimps from my 600lb life nestled right up to and it's gonna look big...

I'm sure he suffered severe ground shrinkage when he walked up and thought we better find a way to pose it

 

Great animal. Need better pics of it though. He’s like 3’ away from the animal in the pic in the article

 

He’s talking about the years of knowing that bill was walking around before December 31.

 

anyone recognize what kind of Bow he’s shootin??

 

Hoyt rx-9

 

On another site they are claiming he has killed something like 12 400" class bulls.

 

He’s the Lee Ellis of elk.

 

These are pics supposedly of it alive.

 

This isn't directed at you but they open up Grosse Ile to deer hunting same dudes bagging on this feller be lined up to shoot a giant off someone's arborvitaes 🤣

 

I read that he's part of the UPS fortune and paid over $200,000 for the tag. Which would explain all the other huge elk he's killed. According to Facebook

 

Smart guy for outsmarting everyone else. Hats off to him. Now time to celebrate while everyone else cries about it.

 

Still wouldn't do it but that's me.

 

Congrats!
Big bull.

 

When did the Tony LaPratt pose fall out of favor?

 

The man got within bow range of an elk smart enough to get big and he killed it. Kudos to him.

 

Hell of an animal

 

I can't believe anyone would shoot that elk from Hobbit: Unexpected Journey and Battle of Five Armies. What a shame.

 

Dork.

 

Now I'm confused. I thought horns are permanent and antlers are shed and regrown every year.

Elk and whitetails have antlers, not horns.

Buffalo and rhinos have horns.

Oh, and unicorns.

Right?

 

Still a neat picture, I am going to try it on my next big Buck!

That had to be a professional photographer.

 

Biggest for archery the article stated. I'm unclear whether it is the world record for archery or the world record period.(All methods)?

 

My goodness, what an animal.

Killing that many world class animals takes a lot of effort, skill, and cash!

Cash.
That's awesome.

I also read the hunter was in a bad wreck before this kill.
Hurt his rotator and wrist.

So, is the meat donated?
Does he process his own?

Does this mean the elk meat is priceless?

Was it a urban, city deer that people loved? Kinda crazy.

 

Washington has raffles and auctions. Says this was a raffle license, not that he bid the most at auction. Either way what an animal.

 

I've seen both stated. At this point, not sure which is true.

The auction method sounds the most logical. But not sure how the raffle works... can you simply spend a **** load on raffle entries and give yourself a huge advantage?

 

Can't justify spending that coin on that.
Yeah I have a yeti cooler but I complain about sst hornaday 12 gauge prices. Glad I only used two boxes this year and got 5 deer. Quite the deal.

No taxidermy bill either. Whew, Dodge a bullet there. 😂

I'm going splurge and get that meat pump that @John Hine posted with his sausage/miralax thread.

 

Might get most or all of his $ back in sponsorships.
