Not perfectly symmetrical, but he will probably do.

Nice find, I wouldn't be able to sleep if I were you.

I really hope you're hunting somewhere that let's you shoot that. That's the benefit of alot of Westside spots, there's alot of "any bull" or "three point or better" spots. Good luck!

Westside bull?
i would guess eastside by the looks of the scenery.

That was my first thought as well but I zoomed in and checked it all out a bit and I'd say there's some serious room for doubt. My problem with it is that it's still in velvet. That's what makes me think east side. I saw two rosies in mid august without velvet. My other thought is that if that's a Rosie that is absolutely massive. A freaking toad.

Photo is from August 3rd so he still had a while to shed velvet to meet the mid August time frame that you saw the hard horned rosies. I agree with you that it does sort of look like westside greenery. Hopefully the op gets a chance to give this guy a dirt nap.

Not all bulls on the Westside are Rosie, and I bet money it's a Westside bull

I would have to agree not all bulls on the Westside are Rosie but regardless of where the bull is still a super nice bull! Thank you for sharing the picture!

This is an east side bull and no I don't have a tag but 5 people in my camp drew the quality permit so hopefully I can get them on this bull and a few others that are equally impressive
