Sitting in a Walmart in St George for the last few hours with a flat. Here is a few pics from our exploring waring cabins

For those of you with kaibab/strip elk tag seen sign at black rock and eating cabins

Day 2, Hectic day, my brother picked the spot Saturday we went down to deffinbaugh. I was cursing him most of the way because we didnt get there until after 800. But the action made up for it. around 930 we see bunch of bucks that I take a look at. there is a giant typical bigger (deeper forks anyway) than the one in the pic I posted. I get to 78 yards and wait,wait, and wait some more. Something has the other 8 bucks skittish and blowing. I try to force the issue but get busted and they take off like a cheetah chasing them. Twenty minutes later we meet up with GF officer. Really nice guy, I showed him some pictures and he said "you are passing up that". Litterally just after that we run into a group of three bucks that I make a play on. I get to 67 yards and feel very comfortable with the shot and miss. This buck was younger but had mass and points for days. we park there and do some searching hoping to get caught up. around 100 we sitting in a pine draw having lunch and throwing pine cones at each when I spot antlers. 219 yards away. I have my shows off to take out the stickers from socks. My brother says SHOOT IT. and I say we will let fate decide if I can within range I will take the shot. I get to 67 yards again (I just practiced at a waterhole after my earlier miss. He stands, I release, and he Matrix's my arrow. The stalk You can see his horns ffour trees from me The witching hour It starts with me seeing the biggest bodied deer I have ever seen with kicker on each side making him have 40 inch outside spread or very close to it. (I drop my bow arm and wiff it) Next we see this little guy and few of his friends. than a big group of 10 with a typical with double eyeguards.

bad signal. Day 1 @ very first light we got into these guys. 45 yards The rest of the morning was spent exploring the mountain to the east of mesquite and west of black rock mid day was a four mile (round trip trek) to check the one and only trail camera I left out here. A baby double drop buck and a lion on it I go to check to see if I can see the buck I posted earlier (blurry) then the witching hour hits and I have this guy at 25 yards. I like his look and considered filling my tag. Look at 4 inch sticker point.

Here we go

I also have a unit 1 archery elk tag. (relax late season) and killed a 30" desert flats muley.

Two years ago yesterday, I killed this guy in the unit next yours. Good luck!

im rethinking my life choices. The buck looking at the camera has alot of points but is younger. The buck next to the big typical got some serious character on the right side.

Houston, I hope to put my eyes on that Wyatt Earp buck you sent me pics of. Of course once I get up there I probably only see forks and spikes Fred

Back when my kids were young and there was a recession all of money went to life. Then I started killing alot of animals and didn't want to change anything and break my rythym

It's not really score that's driving me. I'm sort of using the supreme courts definition of porn. I know it when I see it.

This buck has alot of bumps, but he just doesn't didn't give me that first impression, I will look for him again to confirm. total seen for two days of scouting was like 18 bucks.

This buck is just below the Mendoza line

13b is overrated!

Went scouting last week, saw a few smaller bucks

Game and fish doesn't like you. You should just give up or maybe when it comes to az turkey you are unlucky in the draw

KUIU

Dont take my comments as a slight on you. I totally understand the logistics of travel.

I did my own thing, I prefer to have my success or failure dependent on my ability not someone else's. Send me your email address and I will pass you on some coordinates

I disagree, I have a strip tag and 90 percent of the people I've talked to have made no mention of guide or outfitter

Anyone notice his hair has come back from the abyss?

Dave When did they come out with the second govenors tag and which organization does it beñefit? Last year at this time, I believe, there was one.

Kind of pees on the North American Model, don't worry I'm sure it will get worse.

Working where I work, we deal with the 1 percenters quite a bit. I find them to be a heck of lot cooler and easier to deal with, than the standard rich guys. Whatever he paid for the tag would be like you or I spending twenty bucks on a tag.

I'm headed up there this weekend, it will be fun finding out
