Title: Big Bull down
Post by: boneaddict on October 10, 2009, 07:18:45 PM: Not what you were probably thinking. But he was big. Way big. I happened to between two of them rutting. Things were going good. I was too close to this guy for my camera. I figured if *censored* hit the fan I could make it behind the car...then all of a sudden Lil Bone showed up behind me. :yike: Then the bull decided to saunter right at me. :yike: I'll try to get more pics up.

Post by: boneaddict on October 10, 2009, 07:38:31 PM: I was trying to think of a title for this next one....
Wrong place wrong time.
Bring it....

Something to behold being between two rutting bulls, though when looking though the fiewfinder...common sense probably frowns on it.

Post by: tonymoe on October 10, 2009, 08:32:22 PM: your pics are always a sight to see! Looks like you got some competition in Lil bone
Title: Re: Big Bull down
Post by: boneaddict on October 10, 2009, 08:35:43 PM: I should have titled this one FAITH.
Lil Bone has too much faith in her Dad. Its one thing when Dad is staring down a bull, but its another when she believes that standing behind him she is safe. Not such a good idea. I about crapped when I heard the shutter go off behind me in my ear.

Kinda funny to think about now, post black angus. Its one thing to hit a black angus with your truck, but wonder what a 2,000 pound bison would do to the Dodge Neon.

Title: Re: Big Bull down
Post by: Skyvalhunter on October 11, 2009, 07:22:03 PM: Great pics by you and Lilbone!!They are definitely one of the more unpredictable animals. Would put them up there with the caped buffalo in that category. A buddy of mine has been stuck on a rock by one while fly fishing in Yellowstone. I too would probably be taking the pics from behind you.

Post by: boneaddict on October 11, 2009, 07:32:36 PM: Thanks! People think they are stupid, I think they are just so big they just don't care.

Post by: WAPITIHUNTER on October 11, 2009, 07:33:55 PM: Nice shots. Man that has me all fired up as I have been wanting to stick an arrow in one of those big boys for quite some time. Thanks Bone for getting me all worked up!!!!!
