My New Mexico bull

My New Mexico bull - 09/21/17 09:36 PM

Not my biggest, but big for missing about 10" of one brow tine and and short 5ths. Gross score 355. Over 52" main beams, 40"inside spread, two brows are over 22", other just under 21". C1 circumference on each side over 10".

I'm disabled, so I have mobility impaired certification from the state, so was Hunting with a crossbow. Hate hunting with it, my legs don't hold up much anymore, so a pack to hold crossbow on my back stinks, it's clumsy, and a pain to get off and on.

Shot was 25 yards, called bull in from 1/2 mile off. It didn't have cows that I seen. Another bull was bugling behind it.

Crossbow was a Scorpyd Orion Extreme. Broadhead was a Rage Hypodermic crossbow Broadhead. Bull made it about 200 yards after the shot.

Thanks guys. Yea seems typical for the genetics in the area, usually great fronts, overall bulls seem to have great genetics.

Exactly, a huge 5x5. I did see a 5x5 with 4 cows cross the road in front of me that was probably a 340 bull.
