Re: Wyoming Elk Rut On?

They are rutting in the Rochelle Hills herd in Campbell County. Have been hunting them hard this past weekend and the bulls were screaming. I missed a real big world class bull and ended up taking a nice 6 pt. Them are some of the biggest bulls in the U.S. We saw at least a dozen big 6 pts. and three others that were world class bulls. They were all in a rutfest among some hundred cows and calves. When I missed a big 7 pt. all the elk moved out of the creek bed and cottonwoods including a big 380 class bull. He was the first one out, leading his cows off the property. He was shot later on that morning by the landowner's grandson. There was a 400 class bull that escaped and there was another that wasn't on that particular piece of land that would be a 400 class 9 pt. They are REALLY rutting in Wyoming, but it just started this weekend.
