I've never put so much work into getting a bull but it was all worth it. I was able to take my biggest Wyoming bull to date on opening morning. Shot was about 200yrds with a 338 rum shooting 250 Bergers at 3100fps which performed flawlessly with a caliber size entrance and a 1.5" exit with massive damage done internally. He was hiding out at about 11000' 2 canyons and 5 miles from camp. Luckily had some friends help with the pack out. He's a solid 6x6 gross score of 349" net score of 342 6/8" ![[Linked Image]](http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r215/huntinfool18/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_0833.jpg)

Awesome bull! Now I know why you didn't answer your shop phone the other day.

It is a limited quota uint. This is the 3rd time I have drawn the tag in 7 years. It's an all diy hunt for me. Non residents will need around 9-10 points to draw
Shoot me a pm with any questions
