My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.

8x6  :yike: one Jim dandy bull Gratz.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

Thanks everyone!  I am still in awe of him.   He has survived so much and I was fortunate enough to get the draw on him. I grew up hunting in Washington and really appreciate the opportunity to harvest a bull here if you put the work in so I can fill the freezer.   I shoot the first  bull I have a chance at every year, spike or pig.   I had no idea he was the good when  I shot,  I saw antlers and a good shot so I took it.

Dang Jon, that's a pig! Steph and I both want our chance at a bull like that!
I wish you guys would come over here,  I owe Stephanie for all the whitetails she passed on and let me shoot :)

Half way thru the read I was going to offer condolences........

Wowser!!  8 x 6.  Hope you had some help getting him out....
I did,  if it wasn't for my buddy showing up, this story would have played out different.   Probably wouldn't have found him in time.   Sometimes a fresh set of eyes makes the difference. I owe him a lot.
