Late Season Shed Hunting Dilemma

NVPete · Jul 23, 2011

How many of you encounter this "problem"?... out hiking hoping to find sheds, I'm either too late for this season, or too early for next one... I "found" a "matched set", but they were "in velvet"!!

He's a Beauty Pete!

You got a Permit?

I don't care if they're big or small!
If they throw lead I like em all!

Naw Lulu... I can't put in for bull elk again until 2013, but I do have a late season cow elk permit for the area. Just as much fun huntin' 'em with camera,though,if I can just have a bit more of prep time. Seems like I usually find these animals when I least expect it, and things get pretty exciting rather quickly!

Pete wouldn't you just crap your pants if you found his sheds next spring? Dandy Bull!

Pete, if I was finding bulls like that I think I would give up shed hunting and take up photography. Very nice. fatrooster.

Sounds like there won't be any sheds off that Bull ever again!

Nedd to know more than what's posted...heard a Depredation Hunt bull lookin' to be a 370+ bull was taken, supposedly within the 5 mi. of Lake Valley Farms. If it's the same bull, this guy I posted up was on the Camp Valley side of the White Rock Mts. July 23rd.

What hunt did they kill this bull on? I know they did away with the depredation hunt this year. The cow hunt is ongoing, but I can't figure out what tag would allow you to hunt a bull down there right now, other than the governors tag.

YOO-HOO LU-LU! Don't know your e-mail, but here's another- a front view of that bull...you think he's done, huh? Camp Valley in the White Rock Mts. on July 23rd.(Area 231)

I still want to hear what tag he was killed on? The only thing I could think of would be the governors tag. There's nothing else open down there right now for antlered bull.
