BOISE, Idaho (AP) - When John Martone spotted the huge bull elk on a forested slope, he knew he was looking at an awesome trophy.
Martone, an options trader from Seattle, brought down the animal with a 130-yard shot from a handgun. The bull's antlers were later measured at a whopping 374 and four-eighths points under the Safari Club International's scoring system.
Skill and luck had their part in the hunt, Martone said. But so did money.
