Sorry I just figured out how to post these.

Drew the tag with 9 bonus points. I hunted the first day, Halloween and then left for another deer hunt in Wyoming. I came back for the last week in November. Well that was incredible. All the other hunters and camps were gone. I mean GONE. I did not see one person for 5 days and the bulls were getting very calm. I had to hike in about 1-2 miles each morning (there was a trail for my 4Wheeler). I saw 35 5-pt and bigger bulls in the 5 days. Saw one 5pt that was in the 350 class (great bull for a 5pt.) and then on the last day I saw this bull and another 6pt that was around 360". This bull was with another bull that was a good bull as well but the main beam was broken between the 2nd and 3rd points. I was able to get within about 350 yards of the bulls and the rest was really pretty easy.

Tremendous hunt and absolutely nobody around. The bull grosses about 375".

What else can I tell you?

Thanks, just trying to draw good tags and hunt hard with a little luck. Love these tags in Nevada though. I have drawn elk, antelope and deer and all three hunts were just incredible.

You were fortunant to have that long of a season to hunt.
The tag I drew this past year was for a hunt only 14 days long.
