Is this bull big enough?

[JPhelps]

Here is a bull I tried killing yesterday.  Got within 20 yds of him 4 times but couldn't get the camera right or the brush was too thick.
That's alright because that means I still have a tag in my pocket.

9/7/12 Big Bull

How did you get so close with that loud music going

[boneaddict]

I think you can kill bigger.

He's a shooter for sure.  Hunting on the wetside has its own unique challenges, I had the same problem on opening day with a nice bull.  Went after him again this morning, and he hung up at 100yrs, or so I couldn't get him to do anything, but chuckle then he lost interest.

Yeah he could ,,,,but fresh back straps ,thats hard to turn down 

[boneaddict]

Big bulls have bigger backstraps

This bull has one of the biggest bodies I have ever seen.    I have hunted around here for 15 years and in this general area there are VERY FEW bulls bigger.

Was it weird that when he was at 22 yds I was actually thinking how heavy the packs would be

Yes, that is a bit odd. You should only think about that after you have a bull down. Especially when you're a young guy like yourself.

Corey, Sweet Deal.  Can't wait to BS you and hear the story.  I have always said the 10th is when the rut seems to start full swing around here.

We found an even bigger bull tonight.  Time to put together a game plan to kill him.

[Elkpiss]

and why didnt you kill that bull in that video? i see a shooting lane and if that was 20 yards it wouldnt have been a bad shot according to your vid if that was 20 yards?  Be agressive my friend be agressive!....
