My younger brother was able to take this nice bull on a OTC unit on public land this past friday morning. This is one of the best bulls ive seen come out of this unit that is typically raghorn infested. I was unable to witness this hunt due to I was up in unit 10 helping a good buddy out on deer hunt. As the story goes; My dad located this bull at first light traveling with 8 or so cows on a ridge top a half mile away or so and was able to make a move on them as they crested the ridge. My brother and my dad were able to come over the top of the ridge on the bull and had him at 80-100 yards filing through the aspens. 3 well placed shots with the old ruger 270 and it was a wrap. My uncle and a family friend were also able to punch their tags on a bull.

I love it when the young hunters get a better animal than the older hunters. I imagine he was walking pretty tall too...awesome! I've been in unit 10 too for the past 4 days looking over the animals. Your buddy do any good? I haven't seen any trulu big deer at all but have had my jaw drop looking over some bulls.

Well.... we found an absolute monster. Guessing he was about 30-31 inches wide and probably would score 195 to 200 inches typical. Was bedded next to a 170 inch deer with about 15 does. Buddy thought he was on him after I gave him directions to the buck for 15 minutes at 250 yards. Ended up shooting the wrong buck.... sick feeling to say the least.
 
That we have. My family and myself have been pretty fortunate this year when its came to killing good bulls this year.
 
Congrats on three good bulls! Your little bro was probably on cloud 9 getting the biggest one of the bunch.
 
Good looking bull, glad he did well WITHOUT your help. LOL

What unit were you guys in, looks like the snow hit hard wherever it was?


Congrats on some nice bulls
