I hunted the Gunnison with my dad a few years back... we both ate tags but had an adventure we won't forget. It was his first elk hunt and first time west of ky lake. Would go back and do an
Archery hunt .... Big nasty stuff around there.

That's where my 3 biggest have come from, the last one in the pic was a 352". Had I had 15 more seconds on the shooting sticks I could have had a shot at a 375" or better. Been Elk hunting a long time and it was by far the biggest I've ever seen. Guide had seen it a few times before and thought it was a 380"-390"
Come on Stompy ill email or text pic to you, you post and we'll have fun guessing score?
Stompy, do you always hunt with a gun or bow in the Gila?
I have my trail cameras out and am getting some great pictures of bulls and bears! Could of taken a bear last Thursday;but let him walk.I live close to the Gila and have a tag again this year and am trying to find a 400.
Just checked a bunch of cameras today.Best +- 350.Pulled all these cameras and moving to some new spots.Some areas have had good moisture and others are bone dry.Hoping for some rain this week to get a few springs running.
You guys that live in that area are lucky! I drew a Gila tag several years ago, think it was around 93. Ended up being severe drought and forest fires all around. Saw very few elk. I was the only one in our camp to get a bull. Nothing special - average 6X6 that scored about 300. Hope to make it back one day. Good luck.
Will check cameras again tomorrow.The bulls are rubbed out and starting to bugle.I have three little bulls on my cell phone that I would send someone to post.I am old and don't know how.

Here's a pile of horns from 2007
The wife and I will be hunting Az unit 10 next friday. I have glassed several bulls that are very worthy of a tag.
