Alan: Your mate's bull is indeed an incredible achievement, even more so in the current post-BTEC era of relatively low buffalo numbers. However a good number of very large bulls (and some exceptional cows!) were taken during the days of the big herds, and never recorded. At that time, absolutely no-one would have run a tape over a set buff horns and quoted the SCI score!!
I suspect that Frank Hardy's displayed set might have given your mate's trophy a run for the money, had it been scored in the same manner.
Personally, I hope we get to see plenty more big fellows popping up from time to time, its a great pity that the benchmark for a good trophy bull these days is only 100 points!
Its been a long time since I've seen a bull hold his head sideways to run through the paperbarks!
