Colorado OTC - Shooter?

[cnelk]

Colorado OTC public land high pressure unit (what otc unit isn’t lol)

Who’s shooting?

Who’s passing?

Sure I'd take him......probably. But if he's still in full velvet like that in September there's probably something wrong with him, so I might not. I'm a situational shooter. Sometimes I pass on good bulls and sometimes I shoot smaller stuff. So who knows.

I’ve let similar types bulls walk. Not OTC but damn near 100% draw with 0 points.

I’d take him day 1 in an OTC unit, unless I already had a good idea where a bigger bull was.

I’d shoot without a second thought.

This year will be my 4th season to hunt elk and I haven’t killed one yet, but I’d pass in hopes that my partner who hasn’t killed one yet in 9 seasons might get a shot at him.

We would shoot him in any unit because I am guessing the truck is 100 yards away.

Same cam/place as last year?

One thing is for sure, no doubt the steaks will be money, and he’s not going to be too heavy. But, that bull standing next to a single 2 year old cow, cow is leaving with the arrow.

I have a few tags this year so something like that might hit the dirt in CO opening day if given the chance though my WY gen tag, pass.

What’s weird, most guys on public land wouldn’t shoot a fork horn, 3x3 WT first day….. elk changes everything . You’re looking at a forky WT.

I’ve learned over the years that tag soup really isn’t all that hard to swallow if it means letting a bull or buck reach maturity. With that being said, who knows maybe he falls off a cliff right after this and dies? Maybe he stumbles onto a pack of wolves? Maybe a lion jumps out of a tree and ends him young. When dealing with nature in its purest form, anything can happen.

Would be an excellent bull for a young hunter or somebody starting their hunting journey. For me he’s a pass. Great photo!

Shooting

OTC tag in Colorado I am shooting weather it 100 yds or 300. A gen tag in Wyoming early archery season I am trying to refrain myself but its hard because elk are for eating mule deer are for hunting and that young bull will eat good...

 

[cnelk]

For the record... Im shooting.

Because that bull will definitely get shot by the next hunter that gets a chance.
