654321 Report post Posted July 14 Looks like AZ Custom Hunts client killed a big bull. Pushing 438 with 78" of mass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NOTAGS Report post Posted July 17 This isnt trick photography either, I saw a pic of a Cope can held against the beam where that left fourth comes out... the mass is unreal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdown Report post Posted July 17 So shot at night left to rot until daylight pictures can be taken (only 100 degrees out) I guess money can buy that too - just like so many tv shows. I hit him (buck pouring out running out of the field) but we are going to back out and come back in the am. Oh he only went 50 yards (no shat— buck is stiff as a board). High five!

high rise hunter Report post Posted July 18 Tremendous bull. Look how much mass there still is at the end of the beam where he's holding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or they shot it in the afternoon and got some sunset pictures and night time pictures. Or we could just make assumptions 🤷🏻♂️ 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
couesmagnet Report post Posted July 18 Amazing bull. Amazing mass ,, not enough length for mid 430s. At some point in time there needs to be some kind of independent verification on the scores of the gov bulls.. Absolute stud but at least 12 to 15 inches was added to the actual score, even with the velvet increase there’s no way. congrats to all involved though. What a sight to behold on the hoof. Congrats to the guide and hunter. 🤙 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NOTAGS Report post Posted July 18 Some of you are jealous morons. Guaranteed a velvet bull of that size wasn’t left overnite. Ever hear of sunset? Can take some time to move and pose an animal of that size. And you photo scorers are amusing, you can’t tell the overall mass from these shots, but I guess you’re the expert. Sheesh, typical CWT BS 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
couesmagnet Report post Posted July 18 Doesn’t matter how much mass the bull has. It’s still missing a ton of length to go almost 440. but I def want one like that for sure. I’ve never seen one that big myself. huge bull though. I’ll bet 500 bucks though that it doesn’t go over 430 all day long. Anyone want to take my 500 bucks on an independent scoring. ??

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted July 18 Score, who cares. Its huge and far more impressive than what 99.99999% will ever see, let alone kill. Jdown, I'm not sure where you are getting your accusation from. Sure looks like sunset and then sundown photos to me. Not sure why you would assume a world class bull shot with a rifle would be left over night. But I am all ears to hear how you formulate that accusation.

couesmagnet Report post Posted July 18 It looks like they shot it 30 mins or so before it got dark. Of course there’s night pics involved. Almost impossible for there not to be night pics. Would have been past dark if I shot that bull. 30 mins worth of pics minimum. I don’t know why anyone would think that they waited to long to process it because there’s night pics.
