Called in a nice bull for my dad on Day 9 of our 11 day hunt. We had rain 9 of the 11 days (during the flooding)but hunted hard through it. Bugling was few and far between but we did manage to get a few receptive customers. I was able to get dad a 30 yard shot on this guy and I couldn't be more proud. It doesn't get any better than that for me. ![[Linked Image]](http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx94/n2mywake/Colorado2013Dadsbull072.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i745.photobucket.com/albums/xx94/n2mywake/Colorado2013Dadsbull088.jpg)

hell yeah, be careful with the background on your pictures though. It's pretty identifiable

Didn't see first pic, but glad you switched it. Good spots are hard to come by and no need to give them away. That is really a heckuva bull and when I hear day 9, I respect that a lot. Congrats on getting it done and on a fine bull.

Sweet! You obviously didn't get the memo that there are no big bulls in Colorado. Outstanding bull, but really a better job of sticking it out through the weather and hunting hard.
Well done!
