I don't think he's longarming...just looks like a farm bull to me.  Look at the mass on those fronts!  Have seen lots of longarmed bulls, and none of them had fronts that looked like Mr. T's forearms.

Here ya go guys and gals. Here's a pic of this same bull at the Utah Sportsman's Expo. At least I am pretty damned sure it's the same one. The fronts match up perfectly and the small point on the right antler near the end matched up perfectly also (Left side as you look at it).

As you can see, he certainly has some VERY impressive mass....but it doesn't look quite as impressive mounted as in the original photo in this thread.

I am NOT insinuating anything here....it could be nothing more than the angle of the other pic, perspective of the shooter, the guy holding the antlers, etc.

After looking at the two pictures, if that is the same bull, I would say the first picture is photo shopped. The antlers have a different color to them too.

As for the color, the pic is a little over-exposed so the antlers look a little lighter than normal.

But, match up the points. It's the same bull. In addition to the points I mentioned above, check out the 3rds on the right antler (again, left side as you look at it). It has the bend upward in it...just like the original photo.

It still doesn't look like it has as much mass to me. That is the part that looks photo shopped to me. I do believe that it is the same bull though.

compare the length of his forearms in the first pic to his upper arms. he could scratch himself above the ears while keeping his elbows hanging at his sides.

Compare the Elk to the Bou behind it. That Elk has fronts as big as your forearm. Incredible mass :yike:

AGchawk this is what I am talking about now your photo looks normal but the original is a different color from the guy's hands down than it is from his hands up!!! I still say it is a real bull but all your photo does for me is prove that the original photo is altered!

LOL...Sure looks that way doesn't it M_ray? I never went one way or the other as far as the first photo goes....but I would have to agree with ya, it sure looks shopped now. I didn't want to jump all over it...I just wanted to show another photo of this bull and let the masses make up thier own minds.

Ironhead, I'll tell ya what, this bull has mass to spare...even in the photo of the mount! Very impressive no matter what the first photo turns out to be.

Cool bull. agchawk's photo is straight forward and believable. So many guys, like the original photo, take their pictures in any way to make them look as big as possible. Like one guy said...raisin heads :chuckle: Great bull anyhow.
