I hope you tipped your “guide”.  :chuckle:   Nice job Steve!
Thank you, Doug. Ty is one of those young men that give you faith in the future. I am proud to call him my friend. I have to tip my hat to him, he could have pulled the trigger on some very special bucks and held out for the one he had etched in his mind's eye. It was a fun ride and I hope to spend more time hunting with him in the future.

Wow!!!!!


What a monster. 

I already admitted that I'd have been unable to keep myself from shooting some of the bucks you posted pics of.

That thing is a brute.

This was a lot of fun to follow along with, thank you!!
Most people (myself) would never even put eyes on a buck of that caliber, congrats!
My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.

Incredible buck and well worth holding out for.  I'm sure the buck will score well, but in reality it doesn't matter, you had an amazing once in a lifetime hunt.
