thanks for the right answer that's what I figured was just following something up and as for the other answer kinda figured I'd get at least one smart a$$ answer.

Bulls don't start dropping here on the westside tell mid to late march, you'll still see spikes and smaller raghorns packing through may.  What were you trying to follow up, I'm nosey?   :chuckle:
When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.

I have always thought that a forum is to help people out I asked a question about sheds because I seen a nice bull the other day thought he should have dropped by now ..
and then I get a bunch of comments by people I don't know or know me.
it don't bother me but what about the person that comes on here looking for a little
help. I guess since I'm not on this site all the time I must not be as good of a hunter as the funny guys on here...have a good day now I'm going out in my back yard and look for sheds

Now thats the post you should have put up! Except the bitchin part, There are to many people out there that just want info then  :hello: and horns are big stuff anymore! Might as well ask fro info on finding the whole animal! You'll get the same response  :twocents: All you had to do was google it and youwould have had the answer 3 minutes after the question  :twocents: Good luck  :tup:

I guess there was know joke why are you so touchy

I think it was in the way you asked the original question. This isn't just a question and answer forum. You need to add a little more info to your first post and guys will be more likely to give you a more thoughtful, and helpful answer.

Why are you so touchy?   :chuckle:

Big beam your questions were delivered wrong their are to many people lurking on this sight looking for the easy pickings and it has folks on edge. Had you had said I have been watching a nice bull around the house can anyone give me an idea when he might be dropping? I bet you would have got a better response.

I personally didn't think his question was bad how he asked, it was a little short and simple, but he did say thanks.  I don't think he should have said that he figured hed get one smarta$$ comment though, that's what turned up the heat.  Anyways, just my opinion.
