WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted October 4, 2019 Its pretty hard to send pictures on a landline or a little more difficult to send a mass email. It seems like we heard about giant bulls months or years after they were killed unless they were in the newspaper. I know you are pot stirring but come on, social media makes it easy to all the big bulls in one spot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flatlander Report post Posted October 4, 2019 Yeah, I’d say we tipped the 6. And I am pretty sure there is still an auction tag out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know you are pot stirring but come on, social media makes it easy to all the big bulls in one spot. you said there were a few 400s in each unit before social media. I’m not stirring the pot, it’s just what you said. There very well could could have been years where there was more 400s than this year, that’s what I’m asking. But I don’t think social media made the bulls smaller that don’t make sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As @BOHNTR has mentioned a lot of those giant gov tag bulls will never be officially measured. Not that it matters as I can appreciate what goes into those hunts but dudes these days act like 350 bulls are common occurrence and I just don’t buy it.

I agree but have you seen the pics of the bulls this year they’re calling 400? Im as skeptical as anyone but there has been monsters killed this year. They might not net 400 after 60 days, but I’d believe 400 gross green 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some local guys killed a giant that went 393 and there pictures make the bull barely look 360s. But yes, those gov bulls this year particularly do look pretty impressive.

When I see a huge bull killed by a credible individual with a score sheet posted Thats says 400” I tend to believe. When it’s a 440 that fits inside a 417 Im skeptical of the score but that don’t mean that they all aren’t 400 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
