I love it when I see this bulls, he was as surprised as I was. When he turned I zoomed and the pic got a bit grainy.

Word has it two of them got poached back 3 or 4 years ago. There was a 6X6 that ran with a brute 8X7. They found two bulls together headless, since they were inseparable after the rut it had to be the two studs.
Only good thing is they did a great job breeding because each year since I have seen bulls like this one. His scrape is a pine about 5 inches in diameter.
I'll try and get him with my good camera. He is magnificent, glad you agree.

With any food fortune I'll be able to post some NM pics of my ninth NM bull.
Good hunting to everyone.

We just finished building a weekend cabin (and potential retirement home) near Roslyn and are in the moving process. Can't wait until next year when I'll finally have some time to wander the public land around there and see what hunting opportunities are available. ;)

This should be fun!
I can tell you this much by looking at his front shot his thirds are not weak lik a lot of bulls that are not yet quite mature and on the second picture you see his fourths on up are nice. Decent length in the main beam catagory and could be a little wider but wont hurt his numbers much.
I would put him over 360 but under 375.

Ok all you judges out there, What does he score?

great looking bull!
I'd put him right around the top end of your guess, right around 375"ish.
Post by: littlemac on October 03, 2012, 01:06:55 PM
Tough to tell from the pictures and I didn't get more than a minute or two to watch him but I would say he pushes 375, good mass and his fronts were strong too as well as main beam length.
I had a blow up at work and didn't make my annual trip to New Mexico. My brother and son went though and opening morning my brother tagged out a 6X6 at 20 minutes of morning light and my son tagged a 5X5 that evening just before dusk.
I'll put them up in the 2012 bull thread.

It was a great morning!!!
I took these in morning light with an 80-400 zoom and my Cannon Rebel digital camera.

Awesome bull and cool pictures. I'll bet they wreak havoc on the course! Looks like he's got himself a good size haram
:yeah: he should live long and prosperous living on a golf course with all that green food for him to eat. :chuckle:
tell them to fix their divits :chuckle:
:yeah: :chuckle:

He looks tired and a little thin in the butt and I am glad he has made it this long to carry on :tup:
He's running his ass off right now with the rut, I wish I had his energy. Pretty darned impressive when he's within 30 to 50 yards. It's amazing how agile and quick they are, like a good cutting horse on steroids.
