Elk Weight Contests and Local Hunting News
Hunters report elk weights from 700 to 1,200 pounds on the hoof with live weights estimated from dressed carcasses. A Prescott claim drew skepticism as other bulls near 600 pounds dressed have been checked at Long Valley and Winslow stations. Charles Rodgers, 14, continues to excel with antelope, deer, and now elk hunting, while Sitgreaves and Coconino forest areas show scattered herds and limited success. A wildlife research unit at the University of Arizona received approval, with final plans to be laid by December 1, and a local meeting in Bisbee endorsed the 1080 predator-control program until the opposition withdraws consent.
