I am truly blessed with this buck! Decided to take a weekend trip to finish up the early muzzleloader season, and to visit some eastside friends of mine. Hunted hard all weekend and saw nothing but a abundance of 2 points and does like normal. A good wildland firefighter friend of mine had set me up on a half scorched hillside where he had seen some very size able 3 points almost every day on the fire line. Well lo and behold nothing....until the last hour in the last day of the season. I was in some unburned sage, and I had already accepted the fact that I would need to plan out a late season hunt and work more over time to pay for it . Made it halfway to my rig when I look up and see a doe bounding up the hill, great I think to myself nothing else is gonna show its face in here again, wrong! This big ole guy steps out and just turns and quarters away uphill roughly 110-120 yards. so I focused, aimed and fired and after the smoke had cleared it turns out I dumped this guy right in his tracks. I am extremely blessed with this deer as it is my first mule, and my first muzzleloader kill as well, and not to mention it's freakkn HUGE! definatley worthy of a shoulder mount!

Great looking deer! way to go man! Nothing like waiting for the smoke to clear to see

That's sweet, gotta love punching the tag in the final minutes on a great buck. It's like winning a football game on the final drive! Good job and congradulations on a fine buck!
