Hunt in July for a big Tule elk bull
Hi All,

I've got a chance to find a hunter for a Tule bull on the same ranch where we took a monster last year. Here's a link to the story from last year: Big Tule Bull story

As I stated in the story last year, they've only been able to get 4 bull tags over the years for this ranch/herd. All four bulls have made B&C and I'm told the bull we took last year will be #5 in B&C and #3 in SCI.

A recent count during one afternoon on this ranch showed over 50 bulls and they'll only be able to get two land owner permits this year. The chances of taking a truly great bull are very good. But the price is equally unusual. It's going to take around $30K to get the tag. I know that's a lot of money..., but it's not my choice what the land owner wants and the price has been pushed this high due to the terrific trophy quality on this ranch. One tag is spoken for by the other outfitter who also hunted it last year. The rancher is giving me a week or so to find a hunter and then he's passing the opportunity to another outfitter who supposedly has a client ready to pay the price.

The hunt should be taken in July while the bulls are in velvet to have the best chance of getting one of the larger bulls on the ranch.

This hunt is all low fence/fair chase. The ranch is on the Central Coast of CA near Paso Robles.

Here's the bull from last year:

Here are a few recent trail camera photos:





While we're still experiencing a drought, the feed conditions are better this year than last year.

Feel free to email ( khamann@boaring.com ) or PM with questions.

Thanks,
Kyler
