With all the talk about the 451 bull it got me thinking.  What is the largest bull ever taken on public land.

The thought of a 500 bull just blows me away.  I still think a 300 bull is huge.

Well, when you are used to gutting a deer, they certainly are when you walk up to them.  Then you go moose hunting.....
