The PA rifle bull season is in the bag. I saw a few monsters but not all of them, waiting for a particular guiding outfitter ECO, to post their stories before showing their harvests out of respect. As far as I can tell a total of 29 bulls were harvested over 14 elk zones, honestly a drop in the bucket ensuring that lots of mega-giants will be even bigger next fall, bugling is still going on but sporadic...enjoy the photos ..

How many residents apply vs tags issued?
Looks like the State has done a good job of managing that resource!
About 60'000 res/non- resident applicants..Roughly 15 archery, 30 rifle and 15 Late bull tags..yes they have.. funds raised have been put back into the program with obvious great rewards..

AMAZING bulls. Thank you for posting.
 
Envious! Never been elk hunting, but is definitely on the bucket list, especially considering I live in PA!

May I ask what cartridge/caliber you used?
 
Boy are those terrific Bulls!!!! I applied but did not get selected!!! Great Pictures!!! Thank You so much for sharing with us.
 
WOW! Thanks Frank. Once again, you have given us fabulous pictures. I really appreciate it.
That's the intent, just to let everyone see what can be done in any area if agencies cooperate and people with good intent are running the show based on wildlife science and cash from many places..glad everyone enjoys seeing them..dream makers.
