LAST EDITED ON Mar-02-04 AT 11:29PM (MST)[p]Hello,
This is Ryan Hatfield (Idahonative to all you muley lovers). I have been on this site almost since its inception and have seen many things come and go, most of them pretty entertaining (Buckspy, DeerKing, Moosie come to mind. Even Cass on occasion).
For the last six years, I have been collecting stories on big Idaho bucks. For the first three, there was no intention of writing a book. It was simply out of interest of the old-timers who hunted in the Golden Era and a desire to try to preserve those old stories before they were gone. It snowballed, however, and what I ended up with was 412 pages of some of the most ridiculous bucks I could ever have imagined possible.
To me, the book is not nearly so much about the hunter or the score as it is just a chance to pay tribute to these breath-taking animals. In the end, I hope I have done them a little bit of justice.
Anyway, I would like to invite you to take a look at the book. I am currently running an ad in the mule deer photos page for those who are interested. Thanks for looking,and I hope you will all enjoy the book. It was a real pleasure to be able to put it together. For those who would like to contact me, my email is [email protected]. Take care. Ryan
