Wow!

What a beast. Interesting drops on the 3rds, even symmetrical.

Well,I certainly understand everyone has a right to their opinion. But when photos are posted and two threads started on a huge elk IMO the readers are entitiled to know the cirumstances of the "kill"-which were not fully disclosed until asked about.If an animal is taken under high-fence then IMO if you post the pics then you should expect that some will not ,shall we say,think so highly of it.Having the fence in the background and posting the discussion about agonizing about whether he wanted to spend the extra $$$ on the "upgrade" from his original 420" package(other thread) doesn't help.

We can all disagree about how we feel about high-fenced kills but I don't believe anyone would compare it to a wild animal taken by fair chase means.

Keep killing my friends.

That's awesome man!

Well, I tried to disclose all I knew about the kill (figured everyone knew that SCI=HF) and circumstances of the kill, and in no way have I tried to compare this to a free-range bull. The fence in the background was a deliberate act from what I hear so as not to confuse people and/or discredit a true free range bull.

Honestly, I knew this would ruffle a few feathers and I openly welcome the criticism. I'm somewhat of a critic when it comes to high fences myself. But seeing Mr. Saulsbury with a real smile on his face for once is truly a sight for sore eyes.

and djones.... that's just classic stuff rite there. I'm terrible at photoshop. Do you think you could do that with the hunter and send it to me im a PM or somethin? I think he would get a kick outa it.

I appreciate everyone's response.

Awesome bull. Thanks for posting.

Nice Elk!

DJ You should post a pic of the pet elk you clubbed last year in NM

How 'bout I post a pic of the banker I'm going to club tomorrow!!!

Be sure and do the before and after pics on that one.

Old as you are the odds of you living through the night are pretty slim so I bet i am safe

Here's the BEFORE...


and this is going to be the AFTER...

Nice!!

Big sun-of-a-gun....

If the thf only knew how many different times you had photographed those four hogs you would lose a bunch of your groupies. How many nights in a row can you use the same hog before it gets to ripe. Long live Brother Fred the man who taught you all you know.

I thought YOU taught me how to hunt hogs and photoshop, right after you taught me how to tie my shoes!

djones

You have more groupies than i thought. Funniest part of that pic is that the next night you and Murph reused that hog in a different picture.

Mark3, Darden is being a pretty good sport about us hijacking his thread, but if he gives me the nod, I'm coming over and giving you a judi chop in the throat. Besides, shouldn't you be repossessing someone's car or evicting a family from their home? Isn't there a ghey banker's forum you can troll?
