Awesome buck!

Awesome!

Crazy, I would never have guessed looking at the landscape that there would be Coues there. Congrats

I have almost a full box. Ill be coming up through the valley about 6am Thursday morning. If your in a jam pm me.

Agreed, its definately a penis.

The good old days. Im sad i missed them

Yup, go after some whitetails. You will probably find them to be a little more slippery then what you are used to.

Pillowcases are good if you already have extra you don't care about. I did and had my mom stitch them real good but then they didn't get returned to me from the processor. It comes down to buying Anything vs what you already have. You might be able to buy pillowcases dirt cheap from a re use it place or salvation army. But compared to what you can get black ovis for off of camofire I don't think you could make them cheaper. And since you mentioned backpacking, pillowcases will never be lighter then the black ovis. So once you consider the cost to make them vs the weight i say black ovis all the way.

Gotta love the chicken of the trees!

That buck is freaking cool looking man! Congrats

Saw your boy got one down too. Congrats to you guys!

I think I remember seeing your boys. Saw a couple big mulies in the cooler at pitchfork. Was one of them yours?

Dang, you guys almost got trampled! Congrats to your boy!

After the fog cost her a shot! Face says it all. Saving her dog from the 5 mile hike. All in all I had still had a blast with my little girl. I love this kids tenacity.

Auroras hunt was not so easy. I dont know what it is but it seems like every one of her hunts is tough. We did find a nice little 8pt whitetail with sort of an orangeish chocolate color to his horns. She decided that was her buck. First day we lost him in the thick stuff. Next day we found them and waited for them to bed in the rain. Once bedded we got to within 350 yards and waited for them to get up since we couldn't see them bedded. We got set up and waited patiently in the rainmwhile fog was slowly moving in. Just as they were getting up and we were setting upmfor the shot the fog obscured them while they walked in to heavy cover. That was agonizing! Next morning we got there a bit late but I found them right away on the hill closest to us. We hustled to the edge of a ravine and got to 287 yards. Set up for the shot. I let her take a dry shot at him and she was ready. While loading the next round and finding him the scope something on the hill spooked them and they bolted! Luckily he stopped at 350 right between some trees with a quartering away shot. She squeezed and i could tell she hit him but not where. We basically spent her last two days of the hunt and half of the 3rd day (friday) trying to find this deer. We find the trail and lose it, then find it etc. Never had good blood and we went at least a mile. On the third day we didn't see any scavengers around so I'm confident it was not a fatal shot and maybe she'll have another chance next. Poor kid was pretty bummed.

Caliche first big game animal! Proud mom and sis! Got ber packed up and on the way to pitchfork unlimeted just in time to beat the rains. Roxy got in on the fun. Got our first taste of real rim weather.

Well Caliche got it done 2nd morning. Opening day in the powerlines was a bust since they mowed it all down there wasn't much activity. We spotted a single bull bull off in the distance but that was it. Later in the day we went to look for deer but since we left Caliche with mom at the camper all we saw were elk! Next morning someone was alreary where we were gonna go so we switched plans and headed towards barx area to glass some fingers. On the way we caught a couole in the flats feeding. Caliche made 2 shots before she walked off in the trees. We walked around the edge of the finger trying to get a good shot at her to finish her but was unsure which cow we were looking at. We Waited for awhile and decided to sneak in quietly. He was bummed it didnt happen quick but it all worked out. She ended up staying close to the same spot and we were 10 yards from her put one more in her to finish it. He was pretty pumped. Mom and sister got to be there for it all which was pretty cool.

I tagged along on a pack out Friday for a vet that never hunted before. Dale from wild heritage taxidermy and a couple guys took a vet out that shot his first ever animal. He was thrilled. Nice big cow. Those donated tags really make a difference to those vets, good for you and good karma to you like muledeerare3e said! It was cool to see how someone who basically does It for a living does It. I learned something so it was a great morning.

Sweet! I'm digging the arrowhead. I've only ever found one and had a hard time believing it wasn't a memento picked up at a gift shop. After to talking to some rockhounds about where I found it I believe its legit. Super cool find and a great moment with your daughter.

Great story, congrats to your little girl!

Great job! Thats a great buck. Seems some buck are still in velvet and some not?

Love the pic of the kids together! Looks like some sibling rivalry?

Have you looked into airbnb?
