I want to share with you all a great hunt I had this past week with my youngest boy Max... He drew a muzz antelope tag this year and we spent quite a bit of time scouting his unit... He put a lofty goal on himself wanting an 80" goat and at that point I new I had my work cut out me...


He's a senior in high school playing baseball and looking at colleges to attend for aviation, he was only able to be with us one weekend for scouting... The rest was left up to his older brother and myself...But the only weekend he went scouting we found the buck he later would put his tag on...

The above picture was taken about 20min. after finding the before mentioned buck... And he killed his buck about 300yds from where the above picture was taken...

Opening day found us glassing the open sage country he usually called his home, with not much being glassed by 10:00am we decided to move up into the cedar foothills.. After about an hour and half of glassing the foothills we finally found his buck...


We closed the distance to about 150yds. and he let the air out of a great antelope that ended up being above his 80" goal he placed on himself... We both were very excited and and sad at the same time, for his hunt was over in a matter of 6hrs... And his older brother was going to join us starting Friday through Sunday... But he couldn't pass on the opportunity that presented itself...

Time spent scouting/hunting with my boys is something that I wouldn't trade for no amount of money in the world...Enjoy time with your kids because man they grow up fast...

Thanks letting me share this you guy's on MM...
Happy hunting!!!

great buck,sounds like you had a hunt to remember



How to start an argument online:
1. Express an opinion
2. Wait
 
Congrats. That buck is built for score. Great character, also.

"Hunt when you can - You're gonna' run out of health before you run out of money!"
 
what unit were you hunting if you don't mind me asking it appears to be Delta?

Great buck and he will look good on the wall
