Here is a set that a buddy and I found yesterday. He found the right side and I found the left. They were a couple hundred yards apart. He is extremely heavy, as you can see from the look on my face!

LAST EDITED ON Apr-30-06 AT 08:39PM (MST)[p]Congrats on the set. Did you put the set together or did each of you keep a side? What state did you happen to find that in? You're lucky or smarter......it took me a few hours of hiking over a 3-4 days to find the second side of a rather heavy set myself out here in Nevada. Pictures - I'm working on it. Congrats again.

Dawgs, My buddy took the other side since we were in his area. I dont really care who has them as long as they are somewhere I know about. It was only a matter of time before we found the other one. The bull was living in a deep canyon in a couple hundred yard radias. The sign made that obvious, so we found the other side in like five minutes. Sometimes you get lucky and they arent on the move, other times its not so easy. Thanks
