10 sets
« on: May 27, 2014, 08:54:09 PM »
   Was hoping to find all 5 point or better.  :chuckle: But I will take what I can get 8) Spent some time focusing on locating the two biggest sets. The first one was a gorgeous side by side! :tup: But the other Set was elusive, I located the left and spent close to 16 hours locating the match. Located it in a bedding area dropped in a sheltered bed covered in salal. Old boy knows how to hide..... If only he was hanging out there in September :bash:

   The sets in the living room are from the most recent excursion and it was raining sideways so no lawn pics.  :sry:   The two small sets had a story..... Spotted the first one from the raghorn and noticed another 10 or 15 yards away.... Cool figured it was a match. Nada. Same side from different bulls. I was a little hurried for time, so i did a couple quick laps that turned up no matches. Decided to just pick a line and try to work my way out in the direction I needed to head and maybe get lucky..... 300 to 400 yards away spotted the match to the 5 rag. Nearly tripped over the match to the small rag 30 yards from it. Guess they were buddies :chuckle:.... Kinda cool. The other set was a no brainer, bull dropped in a bed, and dumped the other side when he got up. Gotta love that.

   Picked up some solid singles as well, that I couldnt match up, Oh well maybe I will get lucky while scouting. For now its back to the gym, and scouting for bulls in September!!

Good work. Love matching up sheds. Especially when they are side by side.  :tup:
