haha- yeah his body looks good, but what about his antlers?  This is the only picture I got og this animal...I don't have a tag but have a buddy that does.  Is this bull worth keeping an eye on or not??

I wouldn't go as far as even guaranteeing that he has 2 antlers.  Nice bull, but I'd just take his pic personally. :twocents:

I agree with MtnMuley, you need to make sure he has 2 antlers. You need a better picture of him. He may not have double brow tines, which you need if your looking for a B&C bull. Plus his palms look pretty squared off, no points. If he has 2 antlers, and your looking for a nice wall bull, keep looking for him. My 2 cents

Hard to say for sure, but I would go with a "mid-size" bull as my guess.

I believe he has the dimensions to be a great bull this fall.

If he has a matching side he looks like a very nice bull.

:yeah:

Looks to have good width and palm width. His paddle is squared off because it is still growing.. I'd the other side matches and has split brows he would be a great bull by fall! Post more pics if you get more. Get in that area and find him!

by the look of his flair and how flat he is carrying them, he will be much wider. Providing he is even of course
