been averaging 35-40 days the last few years.  Kill 8-10 bulls every year.  Killed 11 last year.

Hey D rock i see you on here all the time I know you get your animals Im curious do you get a bull in the early every year or are you in either sex unit. I too take the entire early off trying to kill a bull but have only got 1 in last 7 years so i settle on a cow in the late...... :bash:Not a very good caller yet
