Is she one of the Bess family from southern utah ( P town ) ? What a great buck ! I hope it wasn't her first ? I am a old man and have never ever killed a buck that big. Congrats young lady !
That buck has ruined her for life... What a heavy bruiser of a buck...
Sorry, but somebody has to be a jerk- is it really 197"..?? I mean, what is easy to see looks like maybe 172"... so the stuff that's hard to see must be like 25 inches..??
It's a stud no matter what, and taken by a 15 yr old... WOW..!!

This buck was taken on the last day of the season at 2:00 afternoon not when your supose to see them. I glassed him right at light that morning watched him lay down in some tall brush. I left him still laying there at 11:00. I figured he would get up and move back into the trees when the sun started to hit him. But by 11:00 he was still in the shade and i was tired of waiting. I went down and got my daughter, we made a plan to sneak up to the bottom of the opening he was in and wait. Hoping he would feed out that evening. When we got to the opening I told her this was your last chance so we need to be real quiet and patient because we would be sitting there for along time. 10 min. later she poked me in the side and pointed towards where the buck was last seen bedded. I couldnt beleive it! The buck was up feeding 10 yards from were he was last seen him. She had no problem landing the 100 yard shot. I have done alot of hunting in my life but theres nothing that compairs to hunting with your own child. Congrats cait! This is her second buck here is a pic of her first buck. Shes is a lucky sucker!
LAST EDITED ON Nov-20-12 AT 12:04PM (MST)[p]Why is it that "somebody has to be a jerk"? Can't somebody just share a photo without somebody jumping all over them? Great buck!
Wow that's a great story. Thanks for sharing it with us. If I can say, you are looking a little older with that hair on your upper lip. }> Talking about the pictures with you and your bull a few years back.
Great Buck! My congrats to Caitlin on hammering an awesome muley.....My 13 year old daughter killed her first muley this year and I was so proud of her.....and hers only scored 21 6/8 B&C.......Good for both of you! Thanks for sharing!
