out2hunt Report post Posted July 22, 2013 Had to add one more, look at the 4s on the bull in the back! Big 6/ notice the difference in hide color. Older bulls are usually darker right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

huntlines Report post Posted July 23, 2013 Looks like you got some great bulls there. The bull in the fourth picture looks to be the biggest. He has great front ends and the back looks good too. The bull with the sticker point in the last picture is a great bull as well. If he had a little bigger whale tail he would be huge. All shooters just have a great time. My only advise is to be patient. To many guys get all worked up for the hunt and either shoot a rag horn opening day or get frustrated due to slow rut activity. Be patient, enjoy the ride and the rest will fall into place. Don't let anyone try to tell you 5A is not a trophy unit. It is a great unit and you will have a blast during the hunt. Good Luck 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ultramag Report post Posted July 24, 2013 I hunted 5a for a lot of years. My advice, the farther you get away from Hwy 87 the better bulls you see.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
out2hunt Report post Posted July 24, 2013 In years past we have witnessed big bulls get pressured between jack's canyon and red hill. Back and forth across the highway 87 just south of the 615. The biggest bulls I have seen in the unit were north between red hill and east sunset. Love the diversity this unit offers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
