Got my 09 Lope back yesterday.

[Gutpile]

I know I know he's a smally. But it was my first lope hunt and I got excited.     Actually I chose to shoot because he had great hooks, I just forgot to look at the cutters.     Guess I got "Buck fever"

THANKS FUSON'S!!!! Darin................. "YOU DA MAN!"

Its not the size that matters Nice speed goat Gut,there  is a story for the hunt and a memory on the wall..Thats what its about

Nice mount! There's noyhing wrong with it's size. Plus you wouldn't want it to over shadow your other mounts.

DOesn't look small to me.  If I draw Montana this year, that's a dead goat in my book.  Love them prongs...

Nice goat and mount

Thanks guys I appreciate all the compliments. If any of you draw for the first time pass this guy up. They are there by the hundreds if not thousands. This buck would be equivelant to a 100-110 class whity in an area filled with 120's and 130's. I'm really not a trophy guy but in such a target rich environment like WY you may as well be picky. I saw many many bucks bigger than this after I shot this guy. But like I said I wanted one with good curls and thats what I saw here. I forgot to check the cutters before I pulled the trigger.

I actually went through an outfitter and he wanted the hunt to be done so he didn't hold me back. I was also promised we'd shoot prairie dogs, and coyote hunt for the rest of the time which didn't really happen. If I knew then what I knew now I would have let this buck walk. I believe that just about anybody whos been there would agree with me here.

All of that said I'm happy with him. They are just about the coolest critter in the 48 as far as I'm concerned. I can't wait to go back. WooHoo!!!!
