This bull showed up on camera at our property. Give him a few years and he should be a dandy.

Man, there isn't a tag in the free world that I wouldn't gladly shoot that bull on.

Don't get me wrong, he is a nice bull now and I would love to put an arrow through him but since I will never draw the tag, it would be cool to see him in a few years.

That’s a great bull. Destined to have weak 3rds no matter how old he gets.

Sadly so but what he lacks in the thirds he could make up on his tops

I would shoot that one too.  Don't get me wrong, I can well see the difference but I just have a "good enough" size in my mind.
