You shoot bigger animals if you wear a Purple W on your hat......Want to borrow one? They don't hide because they think we're too liberal to pull the trigger.
Should start seeing pics of big bucks passed soon!
So I was asked by Karl while out hunting in sept what it would take to pull the trigger ? I always told the guys that if I saw a bull that we where sure would go 380 that i'd shoot because I knew we would get a good bull come later . I also said that I would be happy shooting a 350 bull in dec if we couldn't find better. So when this bull ran across the road on me I was like greased lighting going into action waiting for a possible shot . I kept thinking what a member on here told me about mass and how it can fool you. lets just say after so many days in the field my trigger finger and lack of patience was wearing on me . So it only took a few seconds to make my choice . After I pulled the tape last night I was pleasantly surprised to come up with 382 gross netting well over 370 . So am I just that lucky or that good at judging ? my guess is the latter ! when I taped him and came up with 220 on the frame I knew he had a chance at 380 and just to think if he had one inch on every measurement he would be over 400 ... that's how close it is when they are that big a inch is tough , I just don't know how guys can be so good on scoring those huge bulls . a big thanks to a secret member on here that gave me some great pointers this year
