Maybe he didn't shed?

I've recently relocated to the Sonora area. Have lived in X Zone country for last 30 years, hunted X6 A archery since 1972. But killed many D6 bucks in 70s/80s. So I've heard about "edge of Yosemite" bucks. I hike 3-4 days a week so even at my age, I think I can still do this type of hunt...

So they haven't sent e-mails out yet? So that's why I haven't heard anything.

LAST EDITED ON May-15-17 AT 10:05PM (MST)[p]4K, I suggest you apply yourself and your son in multiple states. Nevada would cost you $400.00 for the 2 of you build points for deer, elk, antelope, and both species of sheep. Utah for $200.00 total you can both build points for deer, elk...

Beautiful!! I was expecting to see elk quarters on a hay burner.

A very nice pair of bucks.

Joey always had style (note the hat). And a way of pissing off a few on here who are ultra sensitive. Our Kali Bessy/Elk assasian character. I miss him.

LASIK surgery gave me outstanding distance vision 12 years ago, but made me need reading glasses. Sucks when you can read a gps so I have to carry reading glasses now. But the surgery was great for hunting, sports, etc.

Buckhorn, In the same boat as you. Got the wife's and my ID choices all set up. Just need " unsuccessful " then I pull trigger.

I was on the Sacto refuge with my Dad 40+ years ago. Foggy, we'd shot several geese near the closed zone. As we were driving out I saw a guy walking down the levee with a duck strap across his shoulder. Hanging off his back were a couple of snows and at least one speck. Hanging across his front...

I apply wife and I for 6 species (including gen deer) in Utah, 5 species in Nv, deer/elk in Co, deer/elk/antelope in Wy. I apply myself for deer/elk/antelope in Az, and sometimes ID and NM. We still have 50+ PPs in Ore. Plus Kali, everything, both of us. I rarely worry about duplicate tags...

I spend 20-30 days in 5B every year, 2nd week of Oct, through Jan. There are good bucks there but finding them in Oct is tough. Buck I see in late Nov through end of Jan are VERY hard to find during the season.

I'm sure you will (chukar). Hunted it in "95" missed 2 of the biggest bucks I ever shot at, one way over 30". Hunted it with buddies tag about 10-11 years ago. Bucks weren't in previous spot. One day we hiked to top of Diamond. He missed opportunity at heavy, deep forked 26" 4x4. Then he...

I've had the same experience with the Barnes bullets, very accurate initially but if you don't clean regularly accuracy falls off quickly. Same for 7mm-08, 280 and 338. Great results on elk, have used a more fragile bullet for deer/antelope. Guess it'll be Barnes in Kali in the future.
