7 mulies from 3 states in the 42 years that I could have hunted. 2 from Washington state, 2 from Montana, 3 from Idaho. One with a Mossberg 880B in 243 Win, two with a Ruger M77 in 300 Win Mag, one with a Weatherby Accumark in 280 Rem, two with a Model 70 in 7mm Rem Mag, one with a Model 70 in 270 Win. I've bagged maybe twice that number of Antelope.
Obviously I haven't been in areas where multiple tags per year are available, and I was unable to hunt every year due to various circumstances. Finally, over the last 10 years I have passed up on several bucks looking for better horns. I could have run my total to maybe a dozen or so if I hadn't passed looking for a better one, and then ended up with tag soup.
Work has kept me from even getting out deer hunting this year. I hope to get two days of elk season.
I will say that whitetail are coming on stronger in parts of Idaho, so maybe my count will grow some.....
