My stepdad hunted with me in New Mexico last year and shot at a buck he swore was hit. We searched for 2 hours and couldn't find any blood or hair much less the deer. A couple of guys trying to tag some cows during the late season stumbled on the deer. He had gone about 500 yards and bedded down in some thick scrub brush where he was impossible to see without walking over top of him.
Anyway Jim Welles and crew were nice enough to buy the head and ship it to my stepdad. It's on the way now, but I had to share the story and picture with somebody. Jim scored him at 186 non-typical with 5" bases.
That was likely my stepdads one and only mule deer hunt and we were both sick we couldn't find that deer.
