My 2016 Paunsaugunt hunt was a dream Mule Deer hunt come true for me. It started out the moment I saw my odds of finally drawing a tag after 17 years of applying. The help with information started pouring in upon my requests for information. I received GPS cord's, basic information about places, water holes, roads and what I could expect from so many people that it was almost overwhelming trying to compile it all. It was a fantastic opportunity to harvest a buck of a lifetime, and although I didn't take a giant, I got to enjoy and share my hunt with family & friends who helped me not only spot bucks but also to keep me mentally focused when I started struggling. Thank you to everyone (too many to name them all) who offered information and a special thanks to my soon to be wife Anna, my son Austin and his wife Rennin for putting up with me and keeping me focused. Also a huge thank you to utfireman (Ray)stinkystomper (Tony) and the famous elkassassin (Bessy) for being there to offer your help as friends and comrad's, I love you guy's!!
