Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

I actually shoot some home-made bullets.  I haven't shot any store bought bullets.  The bullets I shoot are 385 grain bullets that are similar to a maxi-ball, and they are very accurate.

Here is an as he lay picture. It started off with a location bugle about 400yrd up the hill when he bugled back at me I slowly made my way down the hill toward him. I got to about 40yrds when I spotted a cow looking back over here shoulder at me. After awhile she went back to feeding and then this stud walked down the hill from her, turned around and bugled and then layed down. I ranged him at 30yrds and got ready for a shot. I gave him a soft cow mew and he immediately bugled, got up and came walking right at me. When his head went behind a tree I drew back and held right above his brisket. At about 15 yrds I realeased and watched the arrow dis sapear into his throat. When I shot him he turned to take off and I gave a cow call which stopped him, He just stood there and it sounded as though he was taking a piss but it was the blood pumping out if him. He then turned to go and fell over dead.

Nothing like good friends to be there when there is work to be done. I shot that bull at 11am and we had him broke down and in the truck by 2:30pm.
