Title: Rimrock Bull Tags
Post by: jaredwitman on November 09, 2020, 12:11:15 PM: How did the rest of you bull tag holders do? Our first year in Rimrock with 2 bull tags, ate them both. Seems like alot of places for these animals to hide in that unit. Had a blast regardless. Lets see em!

All but the last Saturday and Sunday. We dedicate those to packing up and cleaning gear before going back to work. :bash:

It's a tough unit for sure , lots of places for them to hide. But it does hold some nice Bulls . When I had the tag 10ish years ago scouted all pre season , had a couple shooter bulls patterned to a T . Opening morning nothing , took 9 days to finally find a Bull , he just happened to be the top Bull on my list .
