It looks like the bulls are passing on there genetics from year to year. Some of those look very familiar

Not mine, but a friends.

Not Hanford, not a true spike unit.

eMac- you're right. There's definitely a few genes passed down tree which is really neat to see.
I'm trying to decide if this bull is the same bull from last year. I'm about 90% confident it is the same bull.

That 7X7 or 8x8 ( one picture form the bottom  ) is awesome.

7x8. Definitely a descendant of a past bull who is no longer with us.
