Nice bulls. Can't wait to get mine back. I'm guessing it'll be a few months yet.

The top bull (6x6) is mine, and the bull to the left of the fireplace (7x6) is my dads. They do look like prairie bulls don't they? Well they are in fact, not, we shot these in an undisclosed (haha), location up north around Nordegg.
