COOSEFAN Report post Posted December 8, 2010 Hey guys, I was curious to see who's all going to Mexico this season? How many of you usually go but have decided not to go this year or anymore because of the problems down there? I'm headin' down for my first trip tomorrow and I'm so excited I can't sleep at night! I've been getting scouting reports from my ranchers and the buck I missed last Jan., named "Amigo" which is close to or just over 130", has been seen several times very recently as well as 2 others that have been said to be similar in size!!! I've got some serious issues deep inside me about that missed shot and we are gonna work hard to make sure I at least get to put my hands on that buck! I doubt I'll be the one to kill it because I'm only carrying my bow but we'll see what happens, my rifle will be there and I've been known to get excited and throw lead when I shouldn't....and known to NOT throw lead when I SHOULD! My story from last Jan. explains all that Here's a couple bucks most of you have already seen, but this is the reason for my lack of sleep recently AND.... I hope this never happens again, but he's a cool buck regardless, you should've seen what this Javalina sized midget looked like on the hoof! Lastly, this is where I'll be sitting on Friday morning and if this dude walks out he's gettin' shafted! (date is wrong, and was actually late Jan '10) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ultra300mag Report post Posted December 8, 2010 Good luck to you!! I am also still going. We will be going the end of January and hopefully can find a good one or two. Since I am in law enforcement I figure I can get killed anytime on the job or running an errand to the grocery store for my wife so I am going and hopefully will have no bad contact south of the border. Again good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
