Great JG. I've been wondering every day how you were doing. The 28 in. short timed 14 pt that stood and looked at me a while( with a few smaller bucks) three weeks ago has not been seen during the season.

The best part of hunting and fishing was the thinking about going and the talking about it after you got back. - Robert Ruark

What a noble effort! You've already earned quite a few "points" for a later time.

You guys are too kind. It's not about me. The boy needs to be around grown men, doing man things. Many of you would do the same thing.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

They did in fact get me personally, as I could only manage to find one 215" double crop tine bomber, only to let him slip away sometime during my stalk. I could not find anything else to shoot in a week's worth of mule deer hunting out here in West Texas. However......there's a kid down the street who lost his dad about 5 months ago, and he's a great kid who loves the outdoors, especially hunting. We spent 5 glorious days together in the sandhills trying to find him his first muley buck. We did, and he dropped this buck in his tracks at about 160 yards with my Tikka 7mm-08 and 140 gr corelokts. He coudn't wipe the smile off his face for the rest of the hunt and I couldn't either. I can't imagine a more perfect hunt. [ Linked Image Good job, JG. I hope you get a great big monster this year almost as big as mine and Jesse's.
