So proud of my little lady! Hunted WSMR on her OIL trophy oryx hunt. Passed quite a few and made a long stalk on a herd but some other hunters bumped them. While making another plan this long cow started heading for us. She let her get to 140 yards and then smoked her!!! Couldn’t pass up an opportunity like that. 280 Ackley with a 168 accubond.

Thanks fellas! I think she’s gonna do a euro and I tanned hide. I’m trying to figure out a way to cape his head to include it kinda like a zebra rug, split from the jaw and skin up I’m sure.
