Tunachaser Report post Posted September 3, 2014 Game and Fish was studying Antelope migrations and in 2011, they tagged and collared like 20 goats in my unit. My buddy was on a late Rifle Elk hunt and took a picture of one with an ear tag. He sent it to me after I shot Hook and we confirmed a match!!! So So crazy. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tunachaser Report post Posted September 11, 2014 Thanks everyone! I'm not sue if you noticed but the last picture I posted in the original post is my brother and I (in front of the big junipers) and my buck(up in the open grass) in the same field of view for my dad who was on the hill. This was about 5 minutes before I took my risky move across the open. The craziest part which I forgot to tell about was that after I took after "Hook", the smaller buck got nervous and started following me! I didnt know but I guess he followed right behind me, well within bow range all the way until I shot. It's crazy that he didnt spook my buck. Another gift!!!!!! And while all this is going on, my dad and brother got confused in the dimming light and thought I was mixed up, chasing the smaller buck while "Hook" chased me. Well that obviously wasn't the case and they were stoked when they found out that I had actually arrowed the buck we were after. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
