Another Great 2005 Elk from Utah

February 27th, 2006 David King - King's Outdoor World

Last Friday I had the opportunity to go and see firsthand another great 400 class bull elk from Utah from the 2005 season. Mitch Albrecht drew a late season limited entry tag and was able to connect on this very unique bull. This was a bull that was hunted hard by other hunters during the earlier hunts, but snuck through.

This bull has a very unique in-line point coming off from his right third point. He also have very impressive G-2 brow tines. The left G-2 has a cool hook to it and was the reason this bull was nicknamed “Fishhook”. The bull has just been officially scored at 415 2/8 gross and 401 2/8 net non-typical B&C.

You will see more of Mitch’s bull in a feature story in Hunting Illustrated and will also be part of our 2007 King’s Bull Elk Calendar.

This shows the 13-inch in-line point on the right side

This awesome left G-2 browtine is 22-inches long. The right G-2 is 19-inches long and had about two inches broken off.
