There have been some exceedingly big elephant bulls shown on here lately, and I found out just a few days ago that one of the new members here on AR has killed a spectacular bull.

A fellow from New Mexico, who goes by STOMPER here on AR, has killed his first elephant. It was taken last week in Botswana and the bull is reported to have gone 89 pounds, with very evenly matched tusks. I wouldn't have mentioned it, but there is a report over on Monster Muleys with pictures.

This guy has had a very rough go of things lately in his personal life. But, the hunting portion of his world could not be going better, as he reported killing an elk that exceeded 400" before he left for Africa. His 2013 hunting season has been something that dreams are made of.

Here are his comments from MM: "He was 89# on one side and 86# on the other. When we left there were only 11 more tags left to check in and the bull I shot was the largest combined weight bull shot in botswana this year. Usually u shoot an ele at 20 yards. However the guide was nervous about the bull getting away so he had me take a shot at 100 yds. It was a brain shot but the bull fell on his right tusk and in old stinky fashion he broke his right tusk. Talk about luck. Anyways here is a picture." http://www.monstermuleys.info/...29.html#.UjhrKeLn_IU
