DIY guided hunt!

[Paradox]

Colorado 3rd season. Hunted 4 days with a guide on a hunt I won in a raffle. Fired the guide and went hunting. HUGE thanks to Scottie (Silverstem) for putting us in the right place at the right time. I Just wish we had ditched the guide a few days sooner so we'd had more time to look around. Shot him at 5 PM on the last day.

That is one heck of a last day buck. That Scottie knows a good buck when he see's one. Congrats and screw the guide.

To say you made the best of a tough situation would be an understatement. That is a helluva buck, let alone on the last day! Really cool antler configuration and main beam length. Congrats!!!
