Why SCI?
most likely because it was shot behind a tall fenceWhy SCI?
Red deer genes somewhere in his ancestry.That bull doesn't even resemble an elk, and isn't attractive in any way.
Even less so if shot behind a fence and paid for by the inch.
High fence.
This High-Fence Bull Elk Could Break an SCI World Record. It Scores More Than 648 Inches
Washingtonian Brian Dhooghe harvested the bull from Broadmouth Canyon Ranch, where guides gave it a conservative green score of 648 and 4/8.www.outdoorlife.com
I've never read a story about a high fence hunt. Gotta say, after reading that article, it's worse than I imagined from a sporting standpoint. I always got that the animals were not free range, but the description reminded me of what it would be like to hunt cattle or sheep. Not very fun...Well he is ugly... And when it comes to high fence hunting I guess it's their money and they can do what they want
Didn’t you mean high fence SHOOTING!!!Well he is ugly... And when it comes to high fence hunting I guess it's their money and they can do what they want
Probably a great grandson off the same farmHe looks a bit like —Spyder
At least that’d be a challenge !Rather shoot a spike on a general unit…
Just sayin
Come on now…..you don’t gotta be that way just because you had to pack yours 60 yardsCongratulations to the "hunter"!
Exactly!!There is not enough money in the world I could make that would make me want to do a hunt like this. It certainly is not for me.
At the same time, I don’t care that some other people do them. This is a high fence farm designed for something very specific. There are a ton of things people spend their money on that make no sense to me. Add this to the list! But I’m not going to spend any time feigning outrage. Who cares? It’s legal. It’s their money. Live and let live.
Question for all you cattle ranchers. When you put down a large steer/longhorn (that you pen raised) do you take grip and grin Photos and post them? Maybe enter in the all time cattle records?
Hunt smart AND hard!Come on now…..you don’t gotta be that way just because you had to pack yours 60 yards
I was thinking a lot the other day about SCI and what it was about it that gave me a funny feeling and I think I put my finger on it. Every other organization out there puts the animal first. WSF, RMEF, WTF, DU, PF, Delta waterfowl, you name it, it’s an organization put together by hunters who love a particular animal to raise money and awareness for conservation of that animal and any others that also benefit. SCI is an organization put together by hunters to protect their type of hunting. It puts the hunt before the animal and I guess that doesn’t sit right with me. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong on what the mission of SCI is, but it seems to me it’s fighting for import rights on different animals, making sure places abroad stay open to hunting etc.This is why I have no use for SCI. kill a zoo animal in a squeeze chute and you're a hero.
I wish they would help get my free range red stag from Argentina, and the rest of the hunting party I was with on that trips animals back to America then.I was thinking a lot the other day about SCI and what it was about it that gave me a funny feeling and I think I put my finger on it.
