Title: Eastern Oregon Bull
Post by: Mark Youngblood on November 11, 2018, 02:38:37 PM: Been hunting eastern Oregon the last 6 years and finally broke that 320 number I have been looking for. Had some chances on big bulls the last 6 years but everything I killed was under 300...... really proud of the bull I fell I truly earned him!

Post by: Mark Youngblood on November 13, 2018, 07:42:01 PM: This picture was taken after the bull was packed up out of the hole to the top of the ridge and we just happened to get there at sunset and still have over and hour to go down hill.... I assure you this bull was not in a farmers field close to the road..we did not even pack bone put

Post by: Mark Youngblood on November 13, 2018, 07:43:55 PM: But for the record I did find and kill him on a bench that he had fed up out of a draw on at 740 yards ave he did expire I a nice place in the junipers

Post by: Crunchy on November 13, 2018, 07:52:15 PM: Im just teasing you, perfect place to kill a bull if you can. Awesome shot at that yardage.

Post by: Mark Youngblood on November 13, 2018, 07:59:42 PM: Thanks I get it...with today’s rifles and scopes if you spend a little time loading and working with your rifle it’s amazing what you can do benched up in the prone with a back pack under the rear stock and light wind... I would shot to 1 k yards in the right environment with no regret with my set up... but would rather shoot at 300 lol
