Nice Job! looks like a good heavy buck.

Great buck, sorry about the way it happened.

That is a stud buck!!

Boy or boy! My #1 bucket item for many many years! I'm completely stoked for you! So cool.

This wall has been shown a few times on this website but it has evolved a little bit over the years. My first is the one right above the antelope. We sold the house and all the mounts in various forms of storage at this time...

I can't find my first one. But this is my first archery one.

Great buck and I like many others appreciate you taking the time to post a picture for us. I'm jealous!!

To be fair the pants are Kuiu, so there is that. Thanks everyone, It's still nice to share a pic or two, I just cant do other forms of social media much. I did learn to like everyone's comments though so maybe I am cut out for this social media hunting.

You aint a kidding. I used cameras as an excuse to go in the woods every couple of weeks. I haven't been once this summer. Partly because all I have going on, but partly because I don't have any cameras up. Its not worth it to me to have AZGFD looking at me, so I elected to not use them at all.

I'm sure sorry to hear, I've been married to the greatest women of my life for 22 years and your post reminded me to never take her or our great friendship lightly. I'll be thinking of you and wish you the best moving forward.

Yeah all the old timers up here are a little worried. I sure hope it continues.

Great season, great bucks and excellent write up and pictures. As usual thanks for contributing to this awesome site. Thanks!

Congrats! I wish them all the success this life can hold!

I carry a G20x now in AK I like having 20 rounds. I'm sure I would go 10mm if it was solely for protection purposes but I already have a few 9mm so no need to re invent the wheel. I like this article. Not peer reviewed but good info. https://sportingclassicsdaily.com/defense-against-bears-with-pistols-97-success-rate-37-incidents-by-caliber/

That's cool...nice find

Sure is purty! Congrats again on a giant. If I remember it grossed 206" or 208" ??? What a giant.

I have a sealed 8lb jug and partial 1lber of 560 for sale. I'm up here in the Show Low/Heber area and won't ship. But I'll be headed down to phx area for State Track next weekend I believe and can meet up. I'm sure I bought it high but I don't need this anymore so I'm happy to help anyone else that may need some. 560 8lb. $250 Free partial opened container 3 lbers all same lot# $100 SOLD

Quality of hunt was down but I don't think the quality of deer was. I knew of and know of a couple real good bucks alive that never showed up. Or at least I never heard of anyone finding them. So who knows??

565 sold

Congrats senor! Great Goulds!

I'm guessing wrong 23 woody. Great buck though

Dan Turley is the auctioneer and has been for many years.

I would build a 25 CM (I just had a 25SST built from Todd South that is about perfect except it maybe too much for ONLY Coues) You could get away with less if Coues was your only game. MY 25SST should hammer elk out to 800+ right now it has only killed a bull at just under 400 yards. I have a 25CM that has killed lots of Coues but it isn't a pack gun. So I would go with the 25CM caliber but built how I had my 25 SST built. Defiance AnTI action I love my proof barrel but I've heard they have had some recent issues with QC. 1:7.5 20-22" with suppresor. 135 Berger or 131 blackjack, I've been extremely happy with the performance on game. I really like my AG alpine hunter stock Triggertech Tangent Theta 315m Lots of Lances influence on the above build. I chose them for overall light weight but not compromising long range if necessary. I also like the 25 calibers because they have some of the best BC bullets available and not everyone is shooting them. Can't resist to post critters again. My 25 CM My 25sst
