If it is a wound I don't think it safe to think it from a poor archery shot.  Could be from fighting or ?????  To many possibilities.

Yeah I have no idea what it is or what happened. Yeah he was a real nice bull. Here's another pic of a smaller one. I watched them for awhile and the larger one with the spot appeared to walk fine and was acting normal so who knows

If you're talking about the pic I posted, I'm not sure where it's from. It was posted in the 2013 bulls thread.
I think it's a Blues bull.

They can run around with an arrow sticking out of them for a long time.  I remember a doe one time that was shot in the head with an arrow and it healed over.  She had it for at least a year, sticking out of her forehead...called her the unicorn deer.

It would be nice if that bull could be "finished off" through a Hunt-WA connection...

 :yeah: If it was a arrow that placement would be hard for one to not get septic and die.
