billrquimby Report post Posted March 1, 2006 I've seen the antlers, and they're even more impressive than the photo. Billy and Ben Mattausch are great hunters, as is the rest of the Mattausch family, including BullWidgeon. BillQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

az4life Report post Posted March 2, 2006 What a buck! I love to hear stories about hunters that do their "due dilligence" and reap the rewards for their efforts. This is one of those cases that the efforts paid off. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Becker Report post Posted March 23, 2006 I once drew the youth hunt in the Kofa's. 11 days or something without seeing a deer. What a drag. finally my father and I finally found a buck, or at least we thought we did. We put a stalk on him and he somehow vanished out of this small cut. we are still scratching our heads all these years later. Anyway I am convinced that there aren't deer down there. You simply look through the binos so long that you start seeing mirages of them, or maybe my dad felt sorry for me and put a small sticker on the lenses of my binos.
