    Son's Nice 16A Late Season Bull

    My son David got a nice bull in the Gilas this week. It was our first New Mexico hunt, and we couldn’t be happier. The country was beautiful. Scouted the unit a couple months ago, and we focused on our favorite area from that. For a late season bull hunt, it was no problem to find country all to...
