It has been a successful year for me and my little hunting partner JP! I can not wait till he passes his hunter saftey this comming year to be able to have a chance at getting his own animals because he has earned the right to have his chance.
This bull I got on the reservation and it was me and my sons first overnight backpacking trip together. I was able to call this bull in from about 600 yards to about 40 yards. JP was pumped up about the situation as you can tell by the pics. The pack out was a hard one but the sunset and having JP there with me all the way through was something I will never forget. Enjoy!
Now this bull I got in south central NM. There were bigger bulls to be got but with my little partner standing next to me it was hard to resist shooting this nice 6x6. We called this one in from about 400 yards and he never made a sound but we could see him all the way and we intercepted him and shot him through both lungs with a muzzleloader at about 75 yrds. Nicknamed the "GHOST BULL!" Thanks to my awesome buddy DINO for being there and calling him in!
This a bull I wish I would have been able to shoot!! Not the best picture but he was just out of range and I did not want to take an unethical shot at him! He was HUGE! Next year maybe JP will shoot him!!
I was able to draw a mule deer tag for unit 38 as my 3rd choice and connected on this nice buck! First one with a smokepole! Unfortunately, my boy was not able to come with me so I did a solo trip!
Thank you to all I have had the chance to talk with on the phone and email that have help make my year a success!
Thank you to my wife in allowing our 8 yr old son to be a part of my successes and for the great food that she prepared for my hunting trips!
Thank you to Dino, Dave, and most of all my boy JP for the memories that you have given to me!!
