awesome buck, I love it

Nice job on the yote. I smoked a 20 week old coyote pup this morning at 15 yards. Going big time aren't we.

Mark- I had talked to Clay about your head months ago and so when I saw some of the things posted on this site I was tempted to talk to Clay to let him know that you were not happy. As a business man myself I appreciate the fact that I can't make everyone happy but I myself would like to be aware of the situation. Well somebody beat me to talking with Clay and wow, what a great example of great men by both Clay and you Mark. I've known Clay for only a few short years, but as others have stated what a great business man and great Taxidermist. Not only is his time-frame spot on,(or sooner) he doesn't rush a mount. I have 3 coues bucks coming from him this month and I'll post pictures for all to see.

Happy B-day man, 31 is ok 35 is going to suck, then we will be in our late 30's haha. I just turned 32 myself.

This year: Bowtech Destroyer 420gr ACC and TBD 100 gr broadhead at 320 fps. When rifle hunting the same picture in Long range thread 300 ultra shooting 210 vld at 3175 fps

Your looking too way too close.

Great looking buck and awesome job and very neat start to finish. I think it looks great but definitely a different pose on that buck than I normally like.

What a great bull, I got to see the pic yesterday. Nice job and congrats again mullins

Thanks for putting that all together, lots of guesses so far.

DB hit the nail on the head. Even though there is a bunch more bugling and rutting activity the second week, once the big bulls are cowed up, it is tough to call them away. I will do exactly what Ron is suggesting except I live and work where my tag is so I will schedule patients from 10-3 and hunt mornings and evenings, during the first full week.

I have both and the outdoorsman is better, but I'm not sure if it is worth the extra 600+ dollars, but I didn't have to pay full price though.

If you go down the 1194 road until it hits 432. Turn left travel it for 2.3 miles. Park your truck take a quad up this little two-track for 2 1/2 miles. Hike to the west and there is a pretty cool hidden spring that I have a camera on, I swear I have six bucks over 100+ one pushing 125. I'll send you pics. Just above the spring to the east is a little knoll that you can glass miles of prime habitat that doesn't get touched. Good luck let me know if you need any help I'll be down there Gino

I was standing by Gino at Chasin a Dream and we both found out we got drawn. I got 23 October Coues.

Sounds good to me. I'm in with my early archery tag.

So by the time you shot your first bull, you were "experienced" I love this attitude. If your not really experienced you have no business hunting. haha. We all started somewhere BTW great find, cool looking bull.

Great looking bucks and mounts Josh- Huge congrats again on an awesome buck and good story to boot.

My buddy Scott with my gun on the longest shot of the season. Rem 700 action in 300 ultra 28" Schneider Barrel Hi tech specialties stock 2" custom brake Leopold 6.5-20 VXIII with turrets Lots of custom action work etc... 210 gr VLD at 3175 fps

Funny story Lark, I know the family well also.

Gino I agree about the exposed fibers on my SDP. It became so bad that I carried a bit of superglue to cover the backside of my pins so they wouldn't rot and fall out. The enclosed fibers is the best reason to spend the money on Axcell.

Great looking buck. nice job

I have the SDP by spott hogg and really liked it, but just updated to a new axcell sight custom with 9 pins, maybe a bit much

Nice job Rob, looks like fun

One thing scouting does is get your blood pumping. I have the 3c tag and most of the bulls change habits and location before season starts but all summer it keeps me motivated to keep shooting, practicing and excited to be chasing bulls. Oh and when you get to see a couple real good bulls on camera or something, it just makes it that more exciting. Like was said before, learn the unit and find lots of cows.

The more of you that stay home will hopefully drive the price down for my coues tags. If I could get a decent tag every few years I would not be so quick to go down, but I have no worries yet. I've never been to Africa but I feel safer going to Mexico hunting than flying across the pond.

Thanks Tom for the great looking pup. This is Bridger the newest member of our family
