Still a nice bull regardless of area and calm down ye above, not trying to steal anybodies spots and I didn't exactly ask for coordinates or exact road numbers.  Last I checked the bethel/goose prairie area is rather large.  I just inquired because my bull from last year looks identical to his and I harvested him in the bethel/goose prairie area, oh darn now I'm going to see people in there now because I mentioned those areas. :bash:

great bull. i dont see anything wrong with mentioning which tag you pulled, gmus are large areas, and people can see what units get put in for most already or can assume which units are good from harvest reports. but thats another discussion. keep it a secret if you want, but people shouldnt be bashed for sharing the general area they harvest an animal in.  :twocents:

why would you not want to mention the unit?  There are bulls is damn near every unit. I hunt the Nile unit, I'll tell you that every day..Funny thing is, in 8 years I have seen only a hand full of rigs in there total and there's multiple nice bulls, tons of elk and deer. 

Great bull, I have the Observatory Tag, obviously your neck of the woods.  I've never taken a bull, but only get this saturday and sunday to hunt!
