Thanks, I resized and resized, and it always said too large, this was the only size pics they were allowing me to add.

Have you tried Photobucket? That might be easier for you. Then just supply the image code or link and we can view full size pictures. PB is a free service, so there's not much to lose, other than a few minutes.

All you gotta do is hover your mouse over the pics on photobucket, then copy and paste the part that starts with "[IMG]" and it will post just like this.

Awesome bull, and pretty symmetrical too! Are you from the island? From Duncan myself.

Got it just west of Campbell River, yeah it is damn near impossible to get a draw there. This draw was a combined 48 years between me my dad and brother. We were planning on taking a full week but my dad was out of town working the whole time so we ended up only having 2 days way past end of rut, we were down to last 4 hours and agreed we were basicaly gonna take any bull, hadn't seen a single elk yet. Came across this guy last half hour of shooting light. First bull we saw and he went B and C.

Yeah other then the one gimpy tine he was pretty much perfectly symmetrical, Yeah I'm a born and raised Campbell River boy. Would probably explain why I'm planning a moose trip followed by a week long blacktail hunt, haha. I love hunting those little fellas.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to live vicariously through my buddies out there......maybe next year , I'll talk them into hosting me on a Charlottes trip for Sitkas. In the mean time, at least the archery mulies here make up for it.

Nice Bull, what did it score?

Double Shovel · #19 08-30-2009, 11:25 PM
