Jumped after the cows had meandered to across the massive field. On opening only a few started shuffling away. After I landed there began a massive stampede of at least 50+ cows and 3 donkeys that ran past me about 60-70' away. They then congregated and slowly began to close on me and moo very angrily.

Zebu,

Did you make it up to the midwest? And if so, is this object the one I think it is?? Long climb. Winds out of the north ideal?

Cheers,

Chris

I wish. I had every intention of going to visit Chicago, but then I got electrocuted and that kinda threw the plans off. I'd have rescheduled, but my thesis is due in 21 days and it's going to be almost too much just to make it out to my first Bridge day! This object was a local 250' A.


Huck,

I kinda want to try that, but I'm not sure if walking into a large herd of scared, angry cows with a lot of food would end well for me or my toes. And I like my toes. I'll get some steel-toe and get back to you

Sure.

I grilled myself a tasty steak tonight and fully concur with cows being food and salad what food eats.

However I usually delegate the slaughter to someone else, and if that wasn't the case I'd be having at an elk/deer/antelope at a comfortable distance using a rifle, revolver, or bow.

I'm apprehensive too as an unarmed guy facing a herd of 1000 pound animals that have been living on things like cow brains.

Ever see a zombie movie where they're slurring "braaiiiinnns"? While cows can't talk the situation is similar, they aren't slowed by being undead, and they're substantially larger than man-sized (so running fast enough to leave your former friend behind as an appetizer may not be enough).
