Excellent find!!! I imagine you guys will still have some fun adventures chasing some other bucks around in there. Amanda

Good luck!! Amanda

GRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrr........ I love my .270!!!!! Amanda

Congratulations!! Nice deer and good story. Beautiful pics of that deer too! Nicely done! Amanda

good question and quite a goal you have there! I don't know the answer, but I will ask Grong. He might know. Amanda

An Arizona Treasure for sure!! Congratulations! Amanda

Thanks for all the nice comments!! It was fun having a few of you along by text during those tense hours we were waiting out the buck. Amanda

Wow, that is bizarre. Can't be an easy life for an antelope with those growing in his face. Amanda

Excellent write-up Doug! As always, there are so many memories and beautiful moments that make up a hunt. Thanks for sharing with us. Amanda

Congratulations on your doe hunt! Sounds like a good day. Amanda

He usually has kids lined up that can go on short notice. But you might call him or Chris Denham and find out if that will work out legally. Amanda

That's a GREAT story and a fine buck. How wonderful it must be to have four generations of hunters hitting those mtns. A great way to cap off your hunt. Congratulations and thanks for the story and pics! Amanda

It's a buck I shot in Mexico a few years ago. I love it because of it's giant eyegaurds, main beams that almost touch, big g2s and it's great dark color, but surprisingly it only scores a little over a 100. It's got a narrow spread.

Wow, that's just awesome!! Thanks for the excellent write-up and I certainly know that feeling of total exhaustion! Congratulations on making a perfect shot on a perfect buck Amanda

You can do that bleaching product OR you can do something simpler by just buying some 3% peroxide in the brown bottles at the dollar store or grocery store. Once the skull is cleaned, just soak it overnight in the peroxide. It's much safer than bleach on a skull. Visit Taxidermy.net for more info on cleaning skulls. Great resource. One trick on the peroxide so you don't have to use so much is that once you empty a bottle, fill it with water and then place it in your soaking bucket to displace some peroxide so it covers your skull easier. Use as many bottles as you need so that your skull is completely covered but you don't have to use so much peroxide. You can use aluminum foil to protect the bases of the antlers so they don't fade during soaking. Amanda

Thanks for the report on your gear!! That's really informative. I will second the Wilderness Athlete products, I used them on both my hunt in AZ and NM. Scott loved them as well. Great energy to help keep you going. And Scott liked the Jim White butt pad so much I gave him mine . Amanda

Wow, that's awesome! You are one lucky young man!!!! Thanks for posting the pics. Amanda

Congratulations! Can't be too many people in the world who have shot a bobcat with a bow. Amanda

I definitely agree concealment is the best protection. Amanda
