Absolutely unreal!!!!!! How much more time do I need to spend in the hills? What additional skill do I need? Deer like that are so rare to find. Killing them with a bow every year and several per year is mind boggling. PLUS, he kills giant elk and other stuff too! Where does one get the time to find numerous trophies of that caliber?
It blows my mind he has such incredible success. It would be incredible if one had that success with a rifle. But with a bow????? I'd sure like to hear the stories of all those big buck hunts. There's something I'm missing here and I want to learn it. The guy is amazing.
I spent 25 days on one of the best units around and didn't SEE a single buck like either of the ones he's killed this year alone!!!
It leaves me feeling like a loser.......ha ha ha Not really.
Neat stuff for sure.

I just noticed that every deer had been gutted prior to the photo shoot. I take that as a sign he values the food as well as the trophy. Cool.

Amazing. I wish there was some way to get all his articles from all the mule deer hunts. I've only caught one or two over the years...and with a bow..and they are giants!

He does kill some good bucks but ya i agree with swbuck on this one it would be nice to have the money and tags this guy has. Also he knows how to take a good picture he sits three feet behind the horns and crouches down so he looks like a little kid behind his bucks. Nice buck never the less

Really? Are seeing different photo's than the ones HH posted above? Cause he is pretty much on top of the deer in all the photo's. Why do you have to detract from a man's accomplishments by brushing them off as good guides, money and expert photography. You appear to be a bit green with envy. I know I am. I hope to take one deer of this caliber in my lifetime. BTW- I only saw antlers, not a horn in the bunch.

Very impressive. I bet anything, he has a very good system he is using and sticks with it. Most of us just kind of wing it and go with the flow and sometimes over think things out. I wouldn't be surprized if he does things very much the same way in each type of terrain he hunts. I could be way off but just I thought I had.
There's always next year
There's always next year
The best money can buy...I have no doubt he's a great hunter but he gets opportunities the average hunter doesn't. Tags, land, connections....and time. Just my opinion.
Government doesn't fix anything and has spent trillions proving it!!!
Let's face it...After Monday and Tuesday, even the calender says WTF!

LAST EDITED ON Sep-24-12 AT 09:32AM (MST)[p]Lots of jealous folks on this forum that, I would guess, have no clue how much work Randy does (or doesn't do) on his own. All of these folks that want to go ahead and diminish these accomplishments feel like telling me what unit, guide, and private land/ranch this deer was taken on?
I've been fortunate enough to both draw and purchase some tremendous tags in my lifetime. I've also paid for guiding services. On the majority of those hunts I've come away empty handed while bowhuhting.
The guy is flat out amazing regardless of what unit he's hunting or if he has some help getting it done. I'm confident in saying these deer were not tied up to trees. Congrats Randy and keep doing what you do!!

jealous no! Envious yes. I have yet to ever draw a LE tag in my life after 12 years of applying. When I do draw the tag I will have to do it without the chute planes, guides, and the time off he gets to hunt the deer. I will only get one chance on a good unit in my life and the unit I draw I wont have ever set foot on. So the odds are that there might not be a deer like that to even hunt and then the odds of me finding it are not in my favor. To kill it astronomical.
If you cant see the difference then I dont know what to say except you give me or any other capable bow hunter 2 to 3 chances a year for multiple years on the LE units hes drawn or $$bought with a $$guide that knows the area and the bucks along with all the $$goodies and Id bet even the worst bow hunter would come away with a few bucks just as big.
Im not knocking him in any way. He still had to shoot the deer with a bow and that isnt an easy task. He is defiantly a killing machine.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-24-12 AT 10:11AM (MST)[p]im not trying comparing the worst bow hunter to him. obviously you cant just have some hack go in and do it because it does take some skill to get the arrow in the deer. It takes some skill to sneak on the deer. Although every deer ive seen on a Le unit arent wired like the over the counter deer.
Im just comparing the opportunity he gets to an average hack like myself. I think Im being fair and reasonable when I say if I had multiple chances a year several years in a row with the time it takes to kill the deer without having to worry about loosing my house I could get it done on a few of those deer.
I may never know though.
I respect Randy for what he does for archery as well but he defiantly hunts white color hunts with a blue color tenacity. jmho
Randy is a killing machine and I still give him props for getting it done.

"Id bet even the worst bow hunter would come away with a few bucks just as big"
I'd take that bet swbuckmaster!!!! LOL Lunch it is.
I have hunted real good areas, and have experience in many more, and the bucks Ulmer is killing aren't as dumb or common as you make it sound. Once you have drawn and hunted a few better than average areas, you'll be singing a new song I think.
No doubt Ulmer probably knows some of the areas where he buys LO tags better than most people who get to hunt the unit once every 20 years, but never-the-less, the caliber of bucks he's finding is incredible. Just finding deer of that caliber is tough, then to turn them up again during the hunt, then to get into position for a good shot, then to actually make a great shot with a bow......all that combined is amazing. BUT, the most amazing part is, HE'S DOING IT IN MULTIPLE STATES and KILLING OTHER BIG STUFF DURING THE SAME SEASON!!!!!
It's one thing to have a great tag and invest huge amounts of time in a unit searching for and then hunting a whopper. It's another to not only turn one up in Nevada, but then run over to Colorado and whack another. Then, he'll probably kill a giant bull or something too.
Anyway, I'd take your bet that others with the same tags would produce multiple bucks like what he's killing. No way, I say!

LAST EDITED ON Sep-24-12 AT 11:41AM (MST)[p]founder on second thought I think your correct even if I had the opportunity to hunt twice as many of the hunts you and Randy have hunted id probably still fail. so what do you want for lunch?
I never said the bucks are dumb or common but how many archery guys hit the henry mountains as one example every year with tags in hand 8? there are probably 3-4 guys out of that 8 who hit the 200-225 mark every year. Now let those same guys get to hunt the same unit every year and odds are they are going to come away with a few great bucks if they have the time, help, and resources.
Like I have said numerous times in this post already. Randy is a killer. He is very good at what he does. It is very impressive ect ect ect to do what he does but in my mind it still has an *.

OK, I like when I win arguments!!! That was easy though. LOL
Rodizio Grill is what I want, but I have to eat it on a "FREE DAY" or I'll get fat. Ha Ha
I've heard people make comments about if they could hunt the Wasatch Archery Only Area, they'd kill huge deer. Well, you and I know all to well that killing huge deer here above town ain't all that easy.
My argument is simply that many people think that killing whoopers is simply a matter of getting a tag, and it isn't. The tag may allow a person to hunt a better quality animal, but that's it. Ulmer is doing VERY WELL in the areas he is hunting, that is what is impressive. I'd be very impressed if all those 215 bucks were 190 inch deer out of general season areas and he was whacking them every year, and multiples in most years.
Bottomline, the guy knows stuff that the rest of us don't. He's better at something, I just want to know what. What is the difference between what he does and I do???? hmmmmmm

Does anyone know where we can read the story on this deer? Does anyone know the facts? Was he guided? Does he have spotters? Is he the one actually finding and tracking these deer?
One thing we can all agree on is he is the master of opportunity. He knows how to get it done when the opportunity presents itself and he is consistantly creating/finding/buying/making deals with the devil for that opportunity.

I'm sure he keeps what he can under is hat as best he can. Like the where, how, etc. He obviously utilizes Greg Krough in some places. Not sure on other places or other people. It doesn't appear to me that any guides are helping him other than Greg, otherwise the guides would be using that success to better their businesses.
I've never read a single article by Ulmer. All I know about him is what I've seen here and then saw on his site the other day.
Guys like me, and most of you, would love to know the details because we want to kill giant, velvet cover pigs too. But I'm sure he would rather all of us just stay at home and envy his success on the internet and leave the big bucks and tags to him. LOL I know I would!!!!
OK, I'l stop drooling. Successful people fasinate the hell out of me. I ran a 10k mountain run yesterday and watched a guy (Max King) win the XTerra National Championship race. Anyway, the dude ran a won a 50k mountain trail race on Saturday in Oregon, then flew to Salt Lake, came up to Snowbasin, and won the 21k national championship on Sunday morning. And he won it easily. What a stud!!!! Unreal I say. Anyway, people who dominate a sport, amazed the heck out of me.

And that was essentially the point I was trying to make. It's not about just having the best tags and guides and access to the best land. I've had all of those and walked away eating tag soup plenty of times...especially with a bow! Does it up the odds in bagging a trophy buck or bull? Sure it does. Does it guarantee anything or make what is typically extremely hard easy? Not at all. In some regards, having a guide has made things harder (such as when sneaking up on game).
To be able to consistently locate and harvest animals of this caliber with a bow is absolutely incredible. No two ways about it.

To kill a buck of that magnitude is amazing, but to kill one with a bow above timberline is, in my humble opinion, the holy grail of mule deer hunting. I have hunted above timberline in CO and it is the tougest most grueling hunt I have ever been on. You better not only be physically fit but you had better be mentally tough. The difference between Randy and most other hunters is, hunters that find a giant mule deer rarely kill it, whereas, if Randy finds one, its coming off the mountain in his backpack.Make no mistake, he's got money, time and exceptional skill and maybe it takes all three to be as consistent as he is.However,how many of you married guys with kids can take 3 weeks off work to pursue mule deer and still stay married and gainfully employed. I'd wager not many.I personally admire the heck out of the guy?

I'm jealous- it must take an incredible amount of time and money to put together the collection Ulmer has. I'd say he definitely has something that NOBODY else has (except Kurt Darner) which is a wall plastered with the biggest mule deer around...
Does anyone think that at some point he might tire of killing such huge animals..?? Would you..??
No matter how much greater the opportunity he has- unless these are hand-fed animals, he still has to get to bow range, and make the shot... (I am NOT saying they are hand-fed- its just for perspective).
Congrats to him...

I'm the worst bowhunter in the world. Can I have a chance? LOL!!!
The only thing I can compare Randy to is he has hunted the Book Cliffs Archery twice and killed two tremendous bucks. I have hunted it twice and killed two average bucks.
I had heard rumors of chute planes, guides, the entire hunt off plus two weeks before the hunt to scout, Hoyt pays him to hunt. Blah, Blah, Blah. Thats all speculation and I can't credibly comment on those.
The one thing I know for sure is he is deadly accurate out to a 100 yards with a bow and broadheads. I don't know if he is shooting that far or not because he doesn't say but if you can pull off that shot like he does than killing a big buck becomes much easier.
Both years I had Book Cliffs tags I was able to get within a 100 yards of the biggest bucks I saw that year but did not try that shot. All to my own lack of ability, believe me I was thinking about it. I tried to get closer and it didn't work out.
Again, I am not condeming him for being a great shot. I am just saying I think that is the difference with him being able to put more big bucks on the ground. You always hear someone saying they got to within a 100 yards.
It comes down to amount of time on the mountain and the ability to close the deal from a further distance.
Founder, Where you within 100 yards of the buck you were after?
Just my opinion

Awesome bucks from a legend in the bowhunting world. I used to think alot like many on here who believe that killing big bucks is a matter of money and opportunity but I have learned that it takes a lot more than that. I have hunted a few limited entry hunts for muleys around the west and in my experience they increase yours odds substantially for killing a big deer but the average hunter (and many fantastic bowhunters) go home empty handed even with these great opportunities. Yes if given the chance to hunt these good units consistantly the average guy would pull out a few BIG bucks but the thing that amazes me about Randy Ulmer is the consistancy of his success killing huge bucks every year!! That is tough. Anything can go wrong on a bowhunt and usually does and he still gets it done somehow.
Guys were on here recently ripping on the giant archery buck killed on the pauns saying that it was shot over apples. Saying this was a canned hunt. The funny thing is that I know someone who has been hunting with the same guides and after sitting blinds for 5 days came home empty handed and said MANY others came home empty handed as well during the same week. Whenever a big buck is killed guys instinctively try to convince themselves and others that there was guides, private property, luck, foul play, etc that caused this other hunter to kill the deer and the only reason they are not killing these big deer is because "their way of hunting is better than the next guy."
Randy Ulmer is amazing and if he hunts the best areas and uses the best guides, bows, optics etc. it is because he has worked hard and been successful and allowed himself the opportunities he has gotten in life. Lets not get jealous and assume he was handed all this on a golden platter. He deserves as much recognition for his accomplishments in life that allow him time and money to hunt as he does for his hunting accomplishments. The guy is living all of our dreams and WE ALL KNOW IT! On top of that he seems like a great guy and a family man to boot. I for one think that his success is amazing!

WOW! ARE YOU HIS WIFE???? Or what.......?
Oh thats right I forgot. This is Monster Muleys where you are not allowed to make any POSITIVE comments about ANYONE, ANYTHING, and gosh forbid you cant compliment someone else on their success!!!!! Some of you guys crack me up. I would hate to live in your world where life sucks and you hate everyone including yourselves. Seems to me many on here try to feel better about themselves by tearing apart the next guy. Doesn't sound like a very fun life to me.
I DON'T KNOW JUST A CRAZY THOUGHT...Maybe..Just Maybe instead of ripping on Randy Ulmer you guys could get of your computer and go hunting yourselves. (I know this sounds crazy but follow me here) You never know you might actually shoot something and have a picture of buck to post on here so all your good buddies can rip it apart and talk about how you cheated to kill it. Give me a break. This site has gone way down hill!

I don't begrudge the guy for his accomplishments but I always take repeated killings of giant bucks with a grain of salt. History has shown us repeatedly how quickly these starts of the hunting world can fall.

That's a nice buck there doggbiter, but it's obvious to everyone that you killed him somewhere on a great LE unit with a great tag. Not only that, but I'm 100% sure you had a bunch of spotters helping. I can also tell that you were able to take three weeks off work for the hunt. In addition, I don't care for your pose with the animal...and your shirt is ugly.
For these reasons I'm going to have to give your accomplishment of killing that good deer a 2 out of 10. Sorry.

I'll tell you what. Only one way to prove the theory. You guys pool together your money, I will buy a landowner tag, and put together my "team". Then I will try and kill a buck like that! I think it is the only way of finding out.
So, what do you say? You guys in?

Seems there are always a bunch of whinner wannabees that have all the excuses in the world as to why they haven't killed a big buck. And then there are the real players that go out and get er done year after year after year. Randy is one of the latter. I have no doubt the man has a passion for hunting and leaves nothing on the table for excuses. He gets er done because he is damn good at what he does.
Dogbiter,
Short beams, no mass, no eyeguards, lucky to be 170, shot with rifle, probably poached it, squiggly front fork! P.S. Buy a new camera your picture sucks.
The truth is dogbiter that is a SWEET BUCK you shot and anybody would be proud of it but I wanted to show all you naysayers how stupid it is to pick apart someone elses deer/hunt on the internet. I could look at your picture and tear it apart and analyze every aspect of it and speculate about how you got it and justify why I am better than you...OR I can just look at it and admire it and think about the fun experience you had shooting it and be happy for you in your success. I could be a little jealous of your hunt and reflect on all my fun hunts and look forward to my next hunt.
I choose to do the latter!

For one thing, I ain't a Tard. I'm from a land far far better.My name will give ya a hint. And no, BC doesn't stand for Book Cliffs. Where I come from I can hunt 200 inch bucks without spending a great deal of money, all over the counter, every year for 3 months a year and all in my back yard. I guess you can say I am priviladged to live where I do. Thus you can use that for your Wannabee excuses. If only you lived where I do you'd be killing big bucks too right????
As for the rest of your comments, Fred Bear, Jack O'Connor, Larry D. Jones, Elmer Keith, Chuck Adams, even Teddy Rosevelt and every other big name hunter that has walked this planet in the last 100+ years, all have one thing in common, they all had money and spent it on their hunting endeavors around the world. Doing so, they hired guides and outfitters, flew in planes, hired strings of packhorses, used native trackers and used the best products of the day ect... So are you saying Fred Bear was a hack and couldn't hunt his way out of a paper bag???

Dogbitter,
Because this thread has already gone sideways, for $hits and giggles I will add these. You posted up a crappy pic of a buck and a wife beater shirt, well, here are some of the bucks I have been a part of in the last few years. These are all DIY and all over the counter. Hope you enjoy.

Yes, Randy may have lot's of opportunity. He built relationships, he is a successful businessman, he is a successful tournament shooter. He writes articles, he does TV segments, he shoots everyday, and he researches areas that hold big animals. He is successful because he is a successful person whom would excel at probably any sport or venture he got involved with.
Instead of hating the guy, perhaps you should try and emulate him? Just a thought. Remember, there are lot's of people out there that would like to see hunting ended. The enemy is certainly not successful hunters like many of the hunters out there and on this site.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-29-12 AT 01:52PM (MST)[p]The only problem with constantly upping the game is the fact that the animals are a limited resource, while hunters and technology are gaining, the wild animals are losing, The human population is growing and most species of wildlife are shrinking in comparison.
Everyone can't be a Garth Carter, Randy Ulmer, or any of the other big names in western big game hunting, it runs smack up against reality, while competition can be a good thing in many instances, Im not so sure its a good thing for the sport of hunting.

Yep. Sums it up. Money, Land, tags, outfitters, scouts, and precious time. Average folks have to work full time and hunt in spare time. Wish I could.

Lmao.. and has unlimited time and money. The average joe is working a full time job supporting his family and hunting in spare time. Since when is hunting all about who shot the biggest animal. Game, set, match.

Look at the top or your browser. Now refer to the words MONSTER MULEYS. You think maybe a few guys on here are trophy hunters?
dreamin',
Look at the pics I posted up above your post. Hmmm, average joes that are weekend warriors and still whackin and stackin big bucks on a fairly consistant basis. Would my friends and I be killing more if we had money? I'm sure the arguement could be made that we could be. Or....we'd be eating more tag soup because we'd be passin' on these dinks looking for the true monsters. Being on a limited income, a full freezer definately helps out. I find I am way more selective and pass on way more big bucks in search of a giant when I have a moose in the freezer. I also find that the years I have a full freezer, I'll hunt till the bitter end in search of an elusive monster and 99.9% of the time, eat tag soup on the evening of the last day of our 3 month season. So the argument could seriously be made that if I had a ton of money where a full freezer wouldn't matter, I'd probably be shooting bucks less consistantly.
