Is this the outfit where they have a team of guides and spotters sight and then monitor the bull and then bring in the hunter who's paid a King's ransom to pull the trigger and kill it?

The Bull is legit but your right about the mossback team. The guy saw the footage of the scouting tape and told the mossberg team he'd pay them a 100,000 dollars to put him on that bull. But the amazing thing is, its a public land bull!!!!!!

You all know how rumors fly, but I did hear that one member of their team on an ATV was actually blocking other hunters from walking down a public road into that area, sort of bullying them.......

Of course, who knows.....

That's a cheap way of hunting if they did do that. It always seems like whenever someone shoots a bull of this caliber, It always turns out to be pen-raised and they try to pass it off as wild. I hope this bull is legit cuz i'm tired of those stories with the pen-raised $100,000 bulls.

Well Public Land is not created equally.
Unless this bull had to put up with wolves and grizzly bears like the record elk he will knock down to Number 2, I don't think this bull is number #2's equally.
This Bull could never have got away from 4 legged preditors with that head gear and would never have reached this size in the real world. Utah is a nice safe game farm. Wolves and grizzlies hunt 24/7
The current world record was not seen by anyone but was found drowned in a large lake.
This was just another horn porn circus, something that is killing the great tradition of hunting.
IMHO
