Post by: CoryTDF on October 01, 2009, 09:00:44 AM: It was under 50 degrees yesterday. As mentioned before, look at the heat rays. There is no way that was from yesterday.

Post by: ThePascoKid on October 01, 2009, 09:19:01 AM: Guy I know shot a bull off the Roberts ranch about 3 weeks ago, there were 15 big bulls in one herd, not one of them had any velvet left, I've seen bucks and bulls out there carry their velvet longer and shed later but that's getting a little ridiculous.

Post by: boneaddict on October 01, 2009, 09:22:03 AM: Did Roberts get hit withthe fire at all.
Title: Re: Hanford Bulls this morning
Post by: Pathfinder101 on October 01, 2009, 09:43:03 AM: They have summer coats too. Of course, if they are sleeping by a nice warm radiation leak... that may expain things. I'll turn off the lights and look at the picture again.. :chuckle:

The bull was 330-340, not the 400+ everyone is talking about I have no idea if that is true or not

I didn't get to go on the hunt so I don't know if they had a fire on their place or not, in the video of the hunt I saw I didn't notice any burned areas.
