That is an awesome bull for that area. We have elk on some of the Ft. Davis ranches.

Long story, short:
I was invited on a “once in a lifetime” hunt in Pecos County. We bugled bulls for 2 days, and I saw this bull at about 1300 yards late in the evening with some cows. He isn’t the biggest, or highest scoring bull on the ranch, but it was a good representative sample for my first bull elk. I knew he’d look good on the wall. We went back on morning 3 to find him again in the same canyon with the cows. He went into a header out of site, so we made our way to the mouth of the header and tried to bugle him back out. We knew it might be tough since he had cows and their were about 10 other bulls in the canyon. After 30 minutes of calling, he came out and I shot him with my 300WM at 90 yards. Toughest part of the hunt was quartering him in the field in 105 degree weather.
