cant type to save my life but there were a dozen bulls bugling in one draw and my brother snuck down to 70 yrds (there were 4 six points within 100 yrds) and one shot the bull went 30 feet and fell over, 6 hrs of packin later he was at the truck.  He scores 332"

Looking thru some pics of bulls in 340 342 I took this Summer. I think this might be the bull you harvested. He was hanging around not too far from area you were hunting. One of the  biggest bulls in the general area I saw this year

Take a look and let me know what you think.

The G-2 doesn't seem long enough.  Were these blackpowder bulls?
Title: Re: Obsevatory Bull Down
Post by: benhuntin on October 08, 2011, 04:02:14 PM
I think it is a different bull  The 2 is not right and the 3's are only 9" on jeremys bull the 3's look to be better on that bull :dunno:
