Score these bulls?

Postby foxvalley » 07 04, 2013 •  [Post 1]

Putting my differences aside, and taking a second job as ranchhand/guide,I was wondering if there would be any interest in helping me score a bunch of really nice bulls that we have on the ranch. If there is, I will start posting pics,side, and front profiles. Here is one of my boys.Thanks.

Hey Doug, welcome dude! Do you have another angle of that bull? It could be 310" or 350" (grin) It's hard to tell what he's got going on up there!

I thought I was seeing things when I saw your name there. Glad you're back.

I agree with Paul, if we could get another angle, that would be helpful. He almost has some "Spider bull" fronts going on there, but from this anlge, it looks like his backs don't match his fronts.

As he stands at present 290ish. He's got some long tines but short stature overall.

I'm with Paul on this one. If he grows in to his fronts, he could be pretty darn big.

His G2s are pretty awesome, and his G3s aren't bad. He's narrow, too.

He doesn't seem to be very old. How old is this bull?
