Utah State Record Elk Breakdown
Do you feel it in the air? I feel new state records being taken in 2006! The season is just getting underway here in Utah and things are looking very good for a banner year. I compiled this list of record elk from Utah last year before the 2005 season. I have since updated the list with two new records from the 2005 season. I also left the elk they surpassed as well. Do you think there will be more changes again after the 2006 season? Time will tell.
I get a lot of questions about what the current records are and what the scores are. Here is a breakdown according to rifle, bow and muzzleloader which will cover the records for Boone and Crockett, Pope and Young and Longhunter Society. According to my knowledge, these scores are correct. However, I have been known to be wrong before.
Here is a list along with photos of the current Utah State Record Elk through the 2005 season.
#1 Non-typical
Jeff Didericksen with his 418 3/8 gross, 412 net non-typical B&C elk taken in 2002
This was also the first 400 net scoring elk taken by a hunter
#1 Typical Elk
Lloyd Jacobsen with the new State Record Typical with a score of 421 6/8 gross and 408 4/8 net B&C taken in 2005
#2 Typical Elk
Brian Gilson with his 414 6/8 gross, 402 4/8 net typical B&C elk taken in 2003
#1 Non-typical Archery Elk
Dan Green with his 410 6/8 gross, 401 1/8 net non-typical P&Y elk taken in 2004
#1 Typical Archery Elk
Kurt Delucero with his 398 6/8 gross, 390 4/8 net typical P&Y elk taken in 2004
#1 Non-typical Muzzleloader Elk
Zane Bassett and his 423 7/8 gross, 392 6/8 net non-typical muzzleloader elk from 2005
#2 Non-typical Muzzleloader Elk
Dave Martin with his 396 3/8 gross, 387 3/8 net non-typical muzzleloader elk taken in 2003
I don’t have information on the #1 typical muzzleloader bull elk. If anyones has any information about what this bull scores, hunter, photos, etc. let me know so I can get it posted and complete the list for Utah’s all-time records for trophy elk.
