What a great time my son and I had spotting and stalking muleys this weekend! Slept in the box of the truck right out in the heart of great deer country and the truck stayed parked the entire time! Nothing like waking up before the sun comes up, strapping your boots on and walking only a couple hundred yards to wait for the sun to rise so you can glass! We spotted Wes's buck from about 1,000 yds, made a couple mile loop around to get wind and on top of him on a clay nob at only 50 yards and waited "roasted" for 8 hours for him to get up. Had him cut up and in the freezer at 3:30am. This hunt reminded me so much of my first hunt, it to was in the same area. I was hunting with the exact same .243 Winchester featherweight with the 3x9. I don't have a single picture from that hunt and always wished I had. So I made sure we captured Wes's hunt in pictures this time around! Have a great fall everyone!

Sweet collage. Congrats to your son he has one heck of a father that's helping him to preserve memories.

What state were you hunting?
 
Awesome. My kids are little and I'm enjoying this stage but I still get gitty
Thinking about trips like that down the road.

Congrats and thanks for sharing.

5575,
He's better looking than you and his buck is bigger! JK
(then we always want our kids to be better than we are)

Actually that is pretty "deja vuish"! Similar looks, similar bucks, same age, same place.
Pretty cool all the way around.

My son is still my favorite hunting partner, even after 15 years of chasing.
 
Congrats to your son...nice shoot'n young man..darn nice looking buck. Thanks for sharing the story and pics.

Life is good no doubt!
Now if I could just get a chance to burn these 14 pref points there in UT on an elk hunt one of these years! Its going to be a blast with both of my sons helping me out! "pay back!" lol
 
Good looking bucks, same area, looks like the same genetics in both the bucks and the father and son. Great season start, hope you have some more hunts lined up.

Sounds like you guys had a wonderful hunt together. There's nothing better than hunting with your kids. Congrats on your success and a great buck.
