It’s a joke mate

I’m going for this one

Cull that poverty bull

Im frothing.” Hollywood “ is mine

We comparing unit 1 to San Carlos Rez crossers? Yeah the 96 bull is in golden age of elk hunting if I remember. I guess the biggest bulls are drought years. Glad I’m getting a tag this year. I already know the bull I’m gonna kill anyway if he didn’t die from the arrow in the hip

Antler envy

And being dehydrated only makes it smaller

Well beer has estrogenic effect I’ve heard so you could grow man boobs from drinking it

And accusing me of putting words in someone’s mouth when this started with assuming I didn’t care about age and genetics when I only mentioned feed.

I started with this quote. You went to this. Which to me sounds a bit like an insult. what is the correlation to drought conditions and bulls getting bigger than during wet years. I want to learn

You know what if* means, and if you weren’t saying than what were you saying? I want to learn, teach me

Elk get bigger with maximum feed, change my mind

I think they elk eat what’s available and wouldn’t pass up nutrient dense food. The topic is moisture related to antler growth, and If you’re saying that drought years they get as big or bigger because of a change in diet I find that hard to believe. I could be wrong maybe they do get bigger on drought years, I’ve never done a controlled study on that, I guess you have

Doesn’t make sense to me. Why would they avoid a nutrient dense plant during wet years? Unless it was only available during drought years edit: I drink ipas and coors light on the same nights all the time

Then I’ve heard that animals switch feeds in drought years to plants that provide more protein or whatever nutrients but that doesn’t make sense to me at face value

That’s really easy, simply increase your total daily energy expenditure. But that’s exactly why bulls theoretically should need a lot of feed to grow excessive antlers

I don’t have it in front of me but if remember right, in the book the golden age of elk hunting it states 1999 was a severe drought year, there wasn’t a single book bull killed on the WMAT.

And your response made wonder because I only said “Take the greatest athlete on earth and don’t feed him. Won’t reach full potential” Do supreme genetic old age class bulls reach full potential with poor feed? Seems illogical to me
