TEANAWAY NEWS!!

I'm glad someone had the honor to harvest this bull. His seed is still alive and well. You know those images that are burned in your memory from being in the field? I have that with this Bull or at least his twin. After several days of trying to get on him I  had him ranged at 150yds, broadside with my muzzleloader. He was real close to some private land so I wasn't going to shoot, not yet. (please don't tell me you can drive tacks with open sites at 150yds with your ML) He would sit there with his 20 cows, belly hanging low, screaming to let everyone know who had kicked their asses. While set up, I had a spike and a 5 point feed 40yds through my lane. The 5 point is feeding towards this bull and I'm thinking, perfect, when he runs the 5 point down the hill he is mine. Not! He could care less about the 5 point and never moved. After what seemed like an eternity a tuft of wind hit the back of my neck and I knew it would be over soon. As happens one of the cows comes to full alert, barks, and takes the herd with her into the private. Fatty was the last one gone. That's one of those images I won't forget. Way to go rougheye. If you get a chance post some stats. Mainbeams, spread etc.

yes but i dont know where to put him yet

Wish I had that problem

I dont have the sheet in front of me but I know his main beams were 60 and 62  outside spread was about 51    I thought he was a 6-7  but as u can see he has an 8 point      I didnt really know how he would score before i shot him  I just knew he was huge  still cant believe how big he is

6x7 or 6x8?  Who Cares Just build a bigger room to put him in.

That is a great bull, the score does seem high though, maybe its just the pics. I saw pics of a friends bull that looks much bigger but doesnt score that high, optical illusion I guess.

Thanks for that rougheye!

I know who's bull you are thinking of Huntnphool, But if you look at the 2nd and 3rd pics everything else being equal rougheye's bull has a little longer 1st and 2nds and all you need is 2-3" more per those points and it will add 8 maybe 10 more inches overall.  Where I really think he (rougheye) gets him is mainbeam bull you are thinking of had 54-55" main beams and rougheye's is 60-62. So 10" on the front and 8" on the mains theres your difference.
