If it came out of zone 37 it’s not a game farm elk I have hunted zone 37 my whole life there are very few elk in that zone and the residents that put In this zone to hunt usually shoot the first elk they see and most never get a chance at one. But there are elk there and some huge ones back 20 years ago we found a set of matching sheds that would have been close to 400”. The zone is pretty much all private land. The community pasture now doesn't let access till after October. So there is always the chance for a bull to get old enough to be that big.
But like all good things there are people who want to kill it we have been having visitors from Manitoba doing the short drive over to sask and cleaning up anything edible in zone 37. By the truckload. Pretty much my whole family is someplace in that zone and farm all around that zone, there are really only elk in a couple pockets.
