Huntnphool and Mray's deer trip
« on: November 18, 2009, 02:04:17 PM »
I got an exclusive photo of the nice buck that M_ray shot today in Montana.  He is probably going to be really mad at me for releasing the real photo to you guys so I've done a recreation.  It looks to be a nice buck.  Can't wait to hear the story.  I just couldn't wait...

That left side is weak.. :chuckle:
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

At least it died with a smile on its face.

Looks like your typical montana muley, not real wide with tall horns.  Looks to be a 4x4 typical although my picture isn't the greatest representation. 

Phool hasn't shot one but I hear he has his eyes on a tall racked muley...   ;)

pope...you should stick to the photog stuff.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Mray - I just located my special measuring tools for deer like this.  Let me know if you want to put a cartoon tape to that rack!

Mray is 7' tall and 320 pounds (for comparison)....I'd say that muley weighs at least 550 field dressed, skinned, without legs, but with balls attached.

Ok ok, you all have questioned my drawing skills so I drew another one.  This one is pretty good.  The buck is better on the one side than the other.  Looks to be a 170 type buck gross or slightly less?
