Official Score is in For Record Ohio Amish Buck Smith & Wesson to Acquire Thompson/Center Arms

Photos Are Posted on 433 Typical Bull Elk!

December 14th, 2006 David King - King's Outdoor World

It started hitting today…photos of a seriously gigantic typical 6×6 bull elk circulating in emails. Is this bull for real? As I posted earlier about a potential top 5 typical elk in the world, this bull was taken during the 2006 season in Eastern Utah and was guided by Team Mossback. The bull has been green scored at an amazing 433 gross and 426 net typical.

This score will put it as the new #4 or #5 typical bull elk in the world, new state record for Utah, and also the largest 6×6 point elk ever taken. Yeah, that’s big. The hunter is Ron Skoronski and there are a few photos now posted on the Mossback web site. They are definitely worth checking out. We will keep you posted on the final score of this great bull.

    That has got to be the most impressive trophy I’ve ever seen! That’s like a 190″ clean 8 point whitetail. It just doesn’t get any better.

    To #2: The B&C world record typical American Elk killed by Alonzo Winters is a 6×7. To #3: He could possibly have had an outfitter apply for him. Can you imagine the instant he realized he was going to get a shot at this bull!

    They must have bought a land owners tag and wanted the Nov. hunt.

    Could it be the Governor’s tag?

    Congratulations to team Mossback! Doyle is an outstanding guy. He certainly does his homework. I have called him during the late summer months and when he answers his cell phone he tells me that he is “on the mountain” filming some good bulls.

    This past year I guided two of three clients to record book bulls by following advice given to me by Doyle. I think the guy is part elk.

    He is a very successful guide. He puts in a lot of hard work and consistently puts his clients on enormous bulls. Again, congratulations!!

    “Average Hunter”??? From what I am hearing the bull was spotted two months before the hunt.By whom not sure, but most likely some young man. Then someone was paid including food to watch the bull for the two months. “Hunter” was then called the day before the season open, got on a plane. First thing then next day (opening morning) “Hunter” shot the bull.

    Again someone correct me if I these are not the facts!

    That is a great bull, Congratulations to the man and to the outfitters for setting up such a great hunt to take a trophy like that. Wish I had the money to take a trip like his. I would love to kill something like that.

    rumor has it that this bull was on the ute reservation. I would not be surprised by it. i personally have seen many big bulls on the reservation.
