Who cares if it is luck or not nice buck!

Well, my good huntin buddy Brian Johnson got the buck of a life time on opening day. We had glassed in a different area opening morning to find a ton of does but no good bucks. We decided to go to a place we scouted earlier in Nov. After about 15 minutes of glassing I picked up a deer about a mile away. He was a small buck about 80" and Brian and I watched him for a minute until he went over the ridge. We split up to each glass some different country. About 20 minutes had passed when I looked back to where the buck had gone over the ridge. There were three bucks standing on top of the ridge now. One of them stood out like a sore thumb. I turned the spotting scope up on him an immediately new he was a shooter. I got Brian back over to take a look and like always happens to me he went over the ridge as Brian walked up. I assured him he was a shooter and we were off to try and get him. It took about 4 hours to stalk up to a ridge where we thought we could see him. When we got up there Brian spotted the two point that was with him at 215 yards. Brian got all set up to wait for the big buck. As soon as he got set up a doe walked out and right behind her sniffin was the big boy. I told Brian there he is kill him please! He laid the smack down on that buck @ 215 yards. He ran 10 yards and was done. It was freakin awesome. Congrats to Brian. We packed him out and were done right before dark. The buck grossed 109 2/8" and has double matching eye guards, One eye guard has another 1" kicker off the back. Enjoy the pics. I had to get one next to the CWT sticker on my truck before we left.

Nice buck. Way to get it done on opening day. Congrats

That is an incredible buck Congrats on a beautiful buck!

That Ram is in 41W. If you look at one of his back legs it looks like he just jumped out of the catchment. I got it on one of my trail cameras a few years ago.

Dude it is the same thing every year. They will have nine meetings and change it every meeting and then 5 days before it happens they will change it again. It is safe to say it wil be between Dec. 27th and Jan 4th. Wait until right before Christmas to call again. Talk to Angel she knows the real deal.

Grong is the MAN! That is a bad butt buck!

I heard it was a nice one. Hurry up and post the pics.

Way to go guys those are some nice bucks! Congrats!

I believe he was on the Maverick side. The second biggest bull was 407. Maybe it was a different week.

A real good friend of mine that I hunt with killed this bull on 10-1-07 on the White Mountain Rez. He has been skunked in the AZ draw for over 12 years and been to New Mexico a few times to kill a few small bulls. I guess he has a lot of work to top this bull. It scored 420 4/8". Congrats to an awesome bull. I wasn't there but I loaded the bullet that killed him. I guess that will bee as close as I can get to killing a bull this big. A bull of 100 lifetimes.

Yep, they are very expensive. If I had that kind of money I would probably do it with my bow.

He had 58 and 59" main beams. His net score is 399". Huge mass as well. It is cool just to see elk that big I think. I have never seen one close to that with my own eyes.

But what!

Beautiful bull congrats. I don't think it would have been smart to pass him up on opening morning.

Saw some pictures of him and his bull, man he has the biggest smile I have ever seen. Congrats on a great bull.

What a great bull and a great job by you and your team. Congrats to you and the hunter.

I knew he would get it done. A big congrats to Christian.

Grong is the man!

I am looking into getting a chance at a Blacktail. I only need two more deer to complete the slam and that is the next on the list. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good outfitters in California? Any info on any credible outfits would be great. Thanks for your time.

She painted it red so I got to hang the deer. She did not dig on the Max 1 wallpaper that I had picked out. I have learned to pick my battles.

Seems like I have been waiting forever to complete this wall in my house. Well I got my Kansas whitetail back today from Mogollon Taxidermy. So now I have my coues deer my 39 muley and my Kansas buck all on the same wall. I think they all turned out well. Thanks to Clay for doing such a wonderful job. Hope you guys like the pics

Good luck buddy I hope you lay the smack down on one of the toads you have been watching. It will be soooo sweet when you put that tag on your trophy because of all the hard work and effort you have put in. Good Luck

I can not find any of the federal primers anywhere. I have tried Cabelas, Sportsmans, Midway. Sinclair and many other and they are all out of stock. Was wondering if anyone new of a place? I need 210's and 215's

When can I order the new design.
