Thought I would share with you some pictures that our two boys Ty and Weston took this last week. Elk do most of their growing in June so there is a huge difference between the first and the last of the month.

Another Great Bull Down! Ted Carlson and Timberland Outfitters are counting our Bison Blessings once again! Ted was able to make a great one shot kill at 45 yards to take this great P&Y record class bull! This bull may also be a B&C record. But for sure he is the biggest bodied bull we have ever taken! Good thing he was still skinny from the winter, handling him was tough enough as it was! Ted and I are not small men and usually if I have a half way sized or strong man with me, we can always stand up even the biggest bulls for pictures. We tried our hardest to prop him up and we never even began to come close! I took some measurements on this bulls 6' tall at the shoulder body because I could see his body and bone structure was huge. For comparison, Most big bulls are around 5'5"+ and will have a hump plate that is 15 to 17 inches tall. I don't think I have ever seen one over 17". This bull was 19"! I found this bulls awesome track and tried to hide my excitement from Ted, but he could tell I knew it was something special. I tracked this bull back and forth for quite a while and noticed an awesome pattern that he had done twice and about every couple of days! I felt there was a good chance he would do it again and that the time for him to do it if he was going to do it would be that day or the next! I had high hopes! I set up some cameras just in case the bull came through at night. It was about noon that day when I settled on a place to set up and take our chances to wait for the bull for the next couple of days. It was cold and we were freezing but since I figured the bull was in the part of his pattern that would be on the park the only thing we could do if we wanted this bull was to wait. So, at 6:20 that evening here comes the huge bull!!! I turn on the video camera and get great video as Ted makes a great 45 yard shot! The bull took a while to expire but only went 40 yards!!! It Was Awesome and we took our time enjoying the night with no hurry to be anywhere. Once I put a knife to him It took us 2hrs and 20min to break down the buffalo into quarters and pieces. And with all the meat, hides and head back in camp it was 1:30 am when I finally crawled into bed! Considering our day started at 4:AM the morning before we were excited to sleep in a little! Felling blessed indeed! Hope you enjoy! Lance. Below is a trail cam picture of the bull shortly before the bull was taken! Below is a picture off of the video at point of arrow impact!!! Check out how that 2000lb animal is already trying to string jump the arrow!

Family is Everything!!! I Love Our Kids! Like so many of you, I am a very proud parent and have to brag on my precious children! This year has been busy and I haven't kept up on pictures. But I,d like to share some of our 4 kids pictures from this year. They were very blessed to be able to draw some fun tags and we had some very fun hunts. Some included the whole family and some they did on their own! First off this year was Javelina season! My oldest son Ty, 16 at the time, took another archery javelina! He has taken 4-5 others with a bow but this time he and his little brother Weston, 14 at the time, went down to 6A by their selves and glassed up and stalked and killed this pig and brought it home and skinned it and quartered it and everything all by their selves. How many 16 year olds can you trust to take your truck and his little brother by their selves to go on a successful archery hunt hours from home? If you know Ty and Weston, or have ever hunted with them, its not a big deal. but Im very proud of them just the same! Next was Our just barely 10 year old daughter Rachel on her very first big game hunt! She used the 7mm-08 to take her pig on the Junior hunt in 6A. So proud of her! Just her and I in the field that day. Next was our 12 year old daughter Aimee with her second 6A jr hunt pig! She shot it across a canyon with the 7mm-08. Her Brother Weston was there helping us that day. Pretty proud of her too! The last kid with a tag was our 14 year old Weston with a 6A Ham tag. He wanted to use a pistol and did! his older brother Ty was with us that day. Weston used his voice to call a herd of javelina out of the rocks and he shot this one on the run with the revolver in a blinding snow storm! Lethal boy! Next was archery deer! My to boys Ty now age 17 and Weston age 15 went to the Kaibab by their selves cause I was busy guiding clients. They camped with their cousins. They have both hunted and helped me guide in the Kaibab many times and while Weston was out hunting with Ty Weston was able to take his first Archery deer. Way to go boys and way to get it done on a great buck! Next up was Ty. Ty actually missed his big bucks in the Kaibab, and found out his sight had gotten loose and moved. but by then they had to come home and go to school. So Ty sighted in his bow again and went out around Flagstaff with us and shot the first buck that gave him a shot. This is Ty's second archery deer in a row! Next was 10 year old Rachel with her unit 7 jr deer tag. I got to hunt with all the kids and our friend Melissa. Aimee had a deer tag also and Weston had an elk tag the same week! We had a great adventurous opening day covering lots of country and seeing 40 bucks and over 100 elk! Rachel took this, her first buck, on the evening of opening day with everyone there to help us pack it out! She shot it after a spot and stalk at 50 yards with the 7mm-08. Next was now 13 year old Aimee with her 7jr tag on the second day of the hunt! Aimee Had shot at this buck the day before with the 243 and hit it in the horn. she was only using the 243 cause our other guns were being used by her siblings but still, it was very unlike her to miss like that. The next day she took our 7mm RUM and her brother Ty and hiked back in there 3 miles and they glassed up the same buck and this time she hammered him down! They cut it up and packed it out with the help of Melissa who hiked in, all while I was hunting elsewhere. So Proud of them! Again, How many teen age kids can you trust to back pack 3 miles back into the mountains with guns and knives and find, kill and pack out their own deer? Again, if you've ever met them you'd understand. Next up that week was Weston with his "Peaks Only" bull tag! We hunted realy hard and passed on lots of little bulls. We were able to hunt with my son Ty and my Brother Blair on the day that Weston got his bull. Weston made a 537 yard heart shot with the 7mm RUM to take his cool bull at 10420 ft elivation! I thought I would brag on Weston a little more as he recently called in (with his voice) and took this nice bobcat with a open sight lever action 22! Way to go son! I'll say it again... I Love My Lethal Kids! The Family That Hunts Together Stays Together! Lance

In light of the recent draw results being processed, I thought I would share a handful of unit 12 Kaibab bucks from recent years TLO hunts. These are just a few of them. For more Kaibab bucks (and buffalo!)and bucks from all around Arizona check out our Website Mule Deer Photo Gallery at http://www.tlohunting.com/gallery/cat.php?cat=2 Its full of fun and priceless memories! We are looking forward to making some more memories with you all real soon! Good luck in getting the tags you want! I hope you enjoy the pictures.

I Though i would Share This Teaser Picture From One Of Our Resent Spring Hunts On The Kaibab TLO Was Blessed To Be Able To Hunt With Brent Morrison Of Hunters Headquarters In Flagstaff. We Had An Awesome Hunt Full Of Adventure And On The 13th Day Brent Sent An Arrow Through This Awesome Old P&Y Bull While I Vedeoed Over His Shoulder! Keep A Look Out FOr The Story And Video!

What do you think this buck gross scores? I have seen this buck for three years now. We call him "Private Spread". He can fit his own piece of personal real estate between those wide horns! lol! I have my ideas of what I think he scores but thought you all would enjoy looking at a cool buck and have fun making some guesses. So what do ya think?

Thought I would share a couple of velvet group photos from Last month in June. Lance http://www.timberlandoutfitters.blogspot.com/2013/06/tlo-interactive-seminar-and-class-by.html

Check out this fun video we got together of two great Dec mule deer hunts we had here in Northern AZ! Once again Jake did an awesome entertaining job with my video footage. Thanks Bud! Lance

Here's a little video I threw together for Scott Callaway. Some of you might recognize Scott (the hunter) in this video. A few of us have been fortunate enough to hunt with him and to say he's a top notch guy is an understatement. We got Scott hooked up with Rimrock Outfitters on his first lion hunt and it couldn't have gone any better. Scott took a BIG tom as you'll see. Thanks again to Rimrock for doing such a great job..... Make sure you watch in HD if you can, great footage. Enjoy!
