Probably old news / pics but I didn't recognise this Bull, anyone have details?

Just got this in an email, have no details, anyone know the story? Massive bull!

that's not the Spider Bull is it?

 

[suavegato]

I don't think so... looks like different terrain than I remember from the Spider Bull pics and looks to be a different guy too? I seem to remember the spider bull guy having white hair? I'll go google some images of spider bull to check though.

check muley madness forum...there's a report of some guy getting DQ'd by trying to apply a Colorado tag on two separate bulls that were killed on an Idaho preserve vs a ranch he claimed in Colorado...

AHHH...I found it http://broadmouthcanyonranch.com/?p=334 it was high-fenced operation in Colorado owned by former Bronco's player Rulon Jones...

Hey Thanks for the info. Randy. I love how they say it was high fence but "fair chase". I wonder what number this Bull was and it's pet name?

"This elk was killed on the 10,000 acre high fence portion of Broadmouth Canyon ranch. It is a very fair chase, natural, high fenced elk hunt."

yea, that kills me...am sure you do have to put a stalk on these bad boys, but really, what happens when they're in a corner?

Agree, although you can't really "corner" and elk on 10,000 acres but I am equally aware that it is still not fair chase. Those guys pay HUGE money to hunt those pets. It doesn't make the elk any less magnificent an animal and it's still a trophy but could never, ever be considered a "record book" animal no matter how big it is.

That is certainly horn porn.

Sure is a big one, Me I like to see big horns no matter what, BUT I don't think I could hunt a huge fenced in bull.
