You just looking for a place to ride? I ride up there all the time and have all my life.

My boys had a great year hunting on the general season hunts in Utah. Ty had a great muzzle loader deer hunt. He made up for a missed shot on this buck when be put a perfect shot on him just before he slipped over a ridge. Bryce was able to harvest his first bull on opening morning of the...

I had the tag last year. Did it DIY but would be happy to answer any questions I can if you that. rout.gohttp://www.monstermuleys.info/photos/user_photos_2018/63042img0302.jpg

I am one of the people that had that tag this year. It was a tough hunt. We put 40-50 miles on horses. Another 15-20 hiking and a whole bunch on atv's. I was fortunate enough to harvest a bull on Dec. 1 so I didn't feel the pressure some of these hunters felt. I spent Thanksgiving in Range...

As long as you are not riding horses get some Neo Navigator 5 overboots and just wear them over your favorite hiking boots. My feet never get cold and i can hike in them all day. Light weight and way cheaper than new hiking boots.

I have been shooting them out of my 300 Weatherby. I have never had an elk get away, but the closer the shot the worse they seem to perform. Having said that I have taken a Moose with one shot, A big bull at 400 yards with great penetration. But I have shot deer at less than 100 yards with out...

This is going to piss people off and I am fine with that but if everyone hates the deer hunt in Utah quit hunting it! All I hear is there are no deer and tons of hunters, so cut deer tags. Listen you can cut tags all you want but if you don't have more does it won't do a dang bit of good. I...

The .243 is plenty of gun. I have killed many deer with a .223, and never wounded one that got away. The most important thing should always be shot placement and discipline. Just use good slugs. I want to get one for my kids to use for their first couple years of hunting.

Congrats on a nice bull. The horse that packed it out sure looks good to me!!! Good to see you used her not the ones with the big ears, makes the pics look better.

Awesome post thought I should share. The Bull went 372, late season Utah hunt

What an awesome idea, my favorite pics of the hunts are the pack train pics. These are all pictures of family outings we have had over the past few years. I love adventures with family and good horses.

These are from my elk hunt in 2009, the bulls were from this fall, and the lions were this spring at over 2 miles through my scope.

I am shooting hand loads with 165 Hornady SST's, kills everything I hit. I love my rifle it is my favorite caliber, and I feel confident with it out to a long ways(can't say how far someone on here will accuse you of being unethical). Do some hand loading and you will find a round that works...

Yes it is limited entry, or I would try to get him.

Ok azdogman, I have no intention of arguing with your numbers on lions and the miles you have traveled to find a track, but I can find a lion track on my horse ride(from my house) almost every weekend. I find kills regularly, and I kill every coyote I can. Nobody said Lions are the only...

Yes, until the deer numbers are back to thriving levels.

Congratulations on a great hunt. Sounds like you guys covered a lot of ground to earn your bull. Good job!

We will see if this works, It was a fun hunt with good friends and family.

A guy I work with and his friend both have tags. They are older guys that have hunted together their whole lives. This will probably be their only chance at a nice bull I am sure they would love any info they could get.

Yes I saw those bulls, I did pretty good I killed a 372 bull the first day. I got lucky there were 5 other hunters after the same bull and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. I did see some other nice bulls that year but nothing like the one I shot. That is some...

Hey I had that tag in 09 how did you guys do on that hunt? Just wondering what ares you know, probably don't habe any secrets to help you out, but good luck.

Depends on who is going to be in charge, if you want to be, get a horse, if you want the animal to think more for itself get a mule. I ride horses all the time and you will never get me on a mule, but having said that if you aren't going to put the time in, a mule might be less maintanance. As...

Awesome work guys, I like the way you show the whole experience of the hunt, buddies, family, jokes, and all that goes with it. Keep up the good work.

Get a Mark V they are made in the USA. I shoot a 300 Wby, and IMO it is still the best 30 cal on the market. I would tell you some of the shots I have made with mine but then I would have to take the backlash of peoples opinions about "ethical" shots. But I hit a coyote running at 450 yards...

Cmon Osborn you know how big he was, and you know how broke he was, so fill us in on the details. I think the whole story is funny, and just want to hear more about it. How long were the points that made him an 8x8, I can't see them on the pic you posted on the TU site.

That is a nice bull, but it has been doctored up for the camera. He was broke on the late hunt, and he was only a 7x7 in August. So unless he grew a 20 inch 8th point after he rubbed the velvet off someone is trying to make him look a lot bigger than he is. My friends had that bull opening...

Thank you Packout for finally helping people understand the problem. Shutting down the hunt would only help for the first year or two after it was re opened, if you want more deer count the does. Back in the "glory days" they were using 1080 poison to kill all the predators and there were...

Not that you care what another person thinks but if you want horses the biggest thing you better be willing to do is put in the miles. I have been around horses my whole life, we ride them year round, and they pack game out every year, so it is no problem for them. I trust the horses enough I...

Amen to what you just said. The Nebo unit is the same way the numbers have been decimated. There are still some animals up there but nothing like there was a few years ago. I personally wouldn't even be excited to have a tag for what they are calling big bulls. And places I used to watch...

Jim you are a good man! And what you say has a lot of merit. I killed a bull of a lifetime last year and didn't want to post the pics because I didn't want to take the grief. Plus there were other hunters after the same bull and who knows what kind of stories could have made up about the...

This is my contribution to dads ideas of good pictures.

Thanks for the compliments, I guess I won't worry about an official scorer scoring him. I don't need him in any books. I am just grateful I got him and was able to do it with my dad, brother, a good friend, and my 8 year old boy. I get him somewhere around 372, and that is probably good...

This is the bull.

Thanks for the info guys.

Just wondering if there is anybody around the Santaquin area that is considered an official scorer. I don't really care what my bull scores but when some one asks you how big he was and you say "I scored him at whatever" they don't believe what you say. If anyone wants to give me a second...

I ride up there almost every weekend the entire year, and have hunted the unit for big bulls with people the last 8 years every year. There are still some nice bulls up there but you will have your work cut out for you. I agree with what the other people have said about the shape the unit is...
