Yet vast majority of un-guided non resident hunters who head west each year will not see a bull of this quality. At best, they can expect a smallish to medium sized bull or cow elk of similar size. 600 lb elk are quite common indeed!

Thats right. Anyone who plans on coming to Oregon and hunting the Roosevelt in the coast range may as well stay home! There are no trophy elk here. really... stay home... nothing to see here... really....
Seriously though, I agree it is very tough for non-residents to bag trophy animals with out a guide. I spend alot of time scouting prior to bow season every year and still can't allways bring home the back strap.
