Thank you for the comments guys. It was the hunt of my life, I did miss a 340 class Bull and a good buddy that was with me on the hunt said he would not hunt with me again if shot that baby (He had seen my bull one week prior) so I decided from that day on, that I would pass on the 340 bull and a two other 280 class bulls.
The night we watched the Wolves chase my Bull my partner and I had just blown our first stalk on him, I will never forget watching him round up his cows and leave. Luckily he and his 30 or so cows came back to the same canyon that we found them in.
There are two guys that played a huge part in my success, JD and HS thank you for your help and Jackelope thanks for the inspiration. It makes it easy to hold out when you have trail cam picks like that.

Congrats Matt, but why did it take you 3 years to post your story? :chuckle:

403 official SCI score. Your right Phelps that is still what I tell people. its crazy how a score can be a little different from one guy to another, I am just happy he made the all time book.

6x6 he was shot this year.

Especially when you see a bull like this one get wacked 24" off the top in deductions. Nets are for fish!!
