Imperial? Do only Texans think in those terms? What fancy name you got for raghorns? I would name that bull Smokey Robinson since you got all those Imperials..... but that's just me.

You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.

I love unique antlers. I'd shoot that bull about 30sec after legal shooting hrs started on opening morning. Wouldn't matter to me if it was archery/crossbow, rifle, or ML.
Another "plus" already mentioned, he's now in the freezer!
Here's a 3rd upside. He didn't die in the bottom of some God-forsaken hole that's just as likely to kill the hunter getting him packed out.
I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.

Thanks guys as this was a very special hunt to call the bull 800 yards in wide open and my pickup was in plain view most of the time. A hunt I will always rember.

Imperial? Do only Texans think in those terms? What fancy name you got for raghorns? Shot with a crossbow in archery season? A "Jenner" (Caitlyn or Bruce....doesn't matter)

That's a super bull for sure,more so because you got him with a crossbow. The fact that he was called a long way and that you got to watch him come in just makes it perfect. I think there is some system where bulls with more than 6 points are called royals or imperials or libertarians or something.

Imperial?? Personally I prefer real butter.
Nice bull, catbegone.

It's a splendid bull and seems from the pictures to have very impressive mass. Honestly, I'd think everyone here on the Fire is more than a little envious.
Forgive my ignorance, but why it it titled an 8X9? i am looking but having trouble counting that high.
