Wow, that's a real nice one. I've done my share of running around over there chasing muleys and elk. In which part of the Selkirk did get it?

I'm okay with secret spots. I've got a catalog full of them.

Here is one of Idahoboone better known as my Dad and his namesake.  He gets to tell any stories if he wants too.

This one came in after his was on the ground.  He is standing about where My Dad was standing when he shot his bull.

He had weak fronts, but his paddles were enormous.  I told my Dad to get ready, that he would be there in about 10 seconds.  When he rounded the corner of brush at full speed coming to kick my ass, I about Cra#@$$ a load.  I checked his fronts, though I probably would have had him dump him anyway.  Shoot.....SHOOT.......SHOOT HIM   It was the longest 3 seconds in my life.

How wide is the widest part of the paddle on your dad's bull and how long,  or on yours...just trying to compare.

I'll get back to you on that.  His was a bit uneven which hurt his score something fierce.  Otherwise he would have been a complete 180 bull, which is darn hard to come by.  If you are going by gross scores than he was indeed in the mid 180s.
