Found the bull and moved in for a shot then the Bull decided to walk towards me, I was worried at one point as he was coming straight at me at around 7m he veered away and walked past at around 9 feet. As he went behind a small bush I drew and put all other thoughts out of my mind and concentrated on where I wanted to hit him
- Didnt look like I got a great deal of penetration as the arrow broke of on his third step. shot placement was perfect. Blood pumping out immediatly. Bull pulled up about 30m away and blood flow was very good, stood there for about 20-30 seconds then ran into the thick stuff. heard him stop about 30m in so left him a bit then went into get him. The arrow had gone in alot further than i thought. it was almost thru the bulls heart and the aorta had been cut off.
Yeah heart beat , rate was out of control.....
The rough score is around 95- 98 douglas points. Bases are 18 4/8 to 19. The bulls left horn is badly broomed off, and is
31 3/8. Right is 32 2/8. Will get a accurate score when skull is cleaned,and horns off. Still my best with a bow.
He had some large scars on his neck, from recent fights. Cattaract on left eye. Very old bull.
SARG- Shoot as much poundage as you can with a heavy arrow and a low profile two blade head. Black stumps are ideal.
I usualy hunt at 72-76lb for buff. Mick
