found another big set!

well not as cool as my non-typical set but hey, i wont complain! he's a 6x7 that i scored at 325" with a 36"spread. but i think this bull is an EXTRA WIDE bull. the way his horns are shaped it makes his 50" main beams lookj short. when i hold them like they should look i believe he is at least 40"inside and more like 42" but anyway they were laying 10 ft. away from each other. but kinda got a little heavy when i was packing them 5 miles back to the truck

i lost a bull a few yrs back that was this big. my arrow glanced off a limb of a downfall and put the arrow right under the spine[ as much as i really dont like to admit that] i called the bull into 32 yrds of me and a buddy. we tracked that bull for 2 miles on the GPS and found less than 5 pin droppes of blood and he stayed with his heard the whole time. i like to think that he made it through my dumbass messup to keep passing on his genes!

but like i said on my nontyp.set. i'm really not that diehard of a shed hunter.[ but this year i have done WAY more than i ever have] i think i really just got lucky picking my area. the first place i wanted to go look i saw 3 bulls packing that night. next day- i found the big set. from there [after getting some great motivation finding that set] i've just been expanding the draws and ridges in the same area.and i keep getting lucky. but believe me, i know some guys who are 100% way better and more die-hard shed hunters than me.

on another note: i did hear from a guy who seen the pics of the non-typ set that he[that bull] runs on private ground all last fall. so theres a good chance that he wont be huntable. but you can bet your azz i'll be watching the area all summer long.

honestly one of the reasons i really got into shed hunting more this year is seeing all the As-They-Lay pics on these forums. so everytime i find one i try my best not to touch it till i have snapped a few pics. but what stinks is i love the pics with a good view for a background. but now i'm so worried about showing the area that i just take pics towards the ground. but hey, i'm glad you enjoy them. i always like seeing other peoples pics too!
