Hanford Bull

Taken 7/15/09




We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

Dont get me wrong he is a good bull, but his second on the right antler is a little weak.  I would probably let him walk :twocents: :dunno:

yeah but his 9th is real strong.

and his 10th on the other side more than makes up for it.

They're real.  A lady that works for me used to work Hanford patrol.  I don't know how her field judging skills are, but her ex husband grew up hunting in Montana, and I believe him.  He still works out there and says there are a few bulls 400+.

It's big but it aint no 460" bull as suggested in an earlier post.  I'd guess upper 300's.  I have a picture of a bull just like him at home we thought was about 380"...

I've done the math a hundred times, this bull is definitely 100% over 450". definitely.

It's hard to say a number like that but this one has it.
