Good for Rudy. He is a member on here ran into him a couple times up there, he is a great guy who always knows where the bigger bulls are. I can't wait to see what he can pull out of there. If you need any help rudy get ahold of me

Yeah, Rudy is a stud. He's going to kill a huge bull. Great guy too.

I went to high school with Jeffery  Burgess. He is a teacher there now. That lucky SOB..

The one who drew the tag is Jeffery Burgess' dad, Jeffery Senior, but I have him as a teacher currently

I don't think Rudy got his bull yet. Trav and Clint did though.

Rudy killed a respectable mid 330's bull with 5 minutes left in his season.......he hunted for a couple of the true monsters in there for the entire hunt and never got a shot that he felt comfortable with.....Could have more than likely sealed the deal with a couple 350 class bulls and one mid to high 360's bull but did not want to pursue a bull smaller than the 2 largest bulls he turned up scouting until the last couple evenings and then things did not quite work out....

He was willing to eat his tag rather than compromise on what he wanted until he really had no chance to do anything other than eat his tag or shoot the last bull he saw before dark on the last day..

Pretty satisfying I would say....No one knows more about the big boys habits out there than Rudy but sometimes things just don't quite work out..... that is why it is called hunting.

Anyone should be thrilled with a 330" bull on the westside, especially if the guy worked his butt off for it. Sure sounds like he did. Congrats to the hunter.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Wish he would have gotten the one he was after but happy he still killed a good bull. Nice work Rudy!

my neighbor knows Rudy and the bull he has on trail cam at the water hole is absolutely mind blowing! By far the biggest Rosie i have ever seen, just too bad he couldnt connect with him

That bull sure is something else, pretty cool to have watched him in person.

No word on the rifle Bulls?  Talking about it won't hurt your odds of drawing it guys, just saying!
