Yes, I have some words of wisdom for you. I drew the Stallion Range Feb 16-17 of 07'. Check your PM, I'll give my #, leave a message if I'm not home, I'll call ya back. It will be worth the call. Later

Awesome lookin' animal 257.  Definately a once in a lifetime thing down there.  The wife and I are both fortunate enough to have a couple of our own as well.  Only we got ours on another continent.  ;)  Either way.....incredibley beautiful animals.

could you tell the difference of male female before you shot them. the only thing im seeing other than possibly having the opourtunity tosee some plumbing is the patch doesnt connect between the eyes.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

the females horns are longer but carry less mass, the males are shorter but a lot heavier.

Thanks slyer, I'm glad I killed a bull, they have a bigger head, chest and shoulders. The guide I hunted with said cows usually have longer horns, but aren't as heavy. The bull I killed was 36''X8''. We seen some cows that were pushing 40'', but weren't as impressive.Get that app in Doug, I'd love to go back down.grin....

Exactly right jack....

After spending some time huntin' em' and seeing them every day it becomes second nature to tell the difference.  Then to actually see them on the ground.....the Bulls are definately impressive.  I'm actually gettin' mine put on a pedestal.
