the spider bull was hunted by 9 guides all in radio contact with each other, not ethical or fair chase in my oppinion! B&C claims to champion fair chase tactics but they clearly look the other way when it suits them!

yeah and the "hunter" that shot it was taking a nap in his trailer when someone woke him up and drove him to the bull

i highly doubt that the Spyder bull is actually 'wild,' looking at the antlers it reminds me of those behemoths on the hunt ranches, pumped full of growth hormones and supplements...a mighty fine rouse to say the least.

im actually kinda thinking that it was wild, and naturally grown. theres no farms around here especially around shelter bay area

The spider bull is a farce hunted by 5 guys so one guy with money can shoot it some record

Questionable on how fair chase it was for sure but one heck of a big animal.
