Still burns me about his harvest.   I have boycotted the Yakima sportsmans show for a couple years now because I disagree with the politics for no bettter word, of this sort of thing.  Maybe I'll wrap my head around it sometime.

I grabbedn touched (molested haha joking) the bull in question at the show.  The antlers appeared very old as if sun damaged and were clearly labeled Colorado as state of harvest.  There were some nice animals there.  I got pics on my camera st home and they were not of the Hanford bull.

If someone has pictures of the bull they should post them.

You can never trust anyone sending them emails I guess.  The high quality bull(s) pictures are mine.  Most were taken in 2009.  I have some nice 16x20s and 20x30 framed shots of him at home with better poses.  L-lens shots with little to no cropping.  I know he lived at least a couple more years after 2009.

Amazing how quickly things leak onto Internet forums.

Those pics where no new news they where on hear a while back , great shots and the only way to keep them from being shared is to not send them. I really dont see why a guy wouldnt want them shared any how . they wern't gonna get hunted except for tribal ( if you call that hunting )There's be a few giant bulls in the last few years , look at nailbenders and that Tennaway bull along with plenty of blues bulls . I know the central raffle bull was also a dandy . I think quite a few don't get entered in the book .

I did not send out high res shots via e-mail fortunately.  I sent some to RMEF and was hoping I could get something in their magazine.  Dont know if they will/have been used.  Here is an expensively framed 20x30 print I have on my wall of him that was essentially uncropped from the camera.

Thats the only thing bad about this forum... Once a big bull has its picture taken and is found out where it lives it gets shot. 8) 8) 8) 8)
