That last bull is awesome. Nice bulls all around! You must have a large trophy room? Congratulations!

Thanks, he has held out for a good bull to shoulder mount since he shot his first bull in 2003 that disappointed him since it wasn't very big.

The area can hold some big elk but most are in the 250 To 300 range.

Trophy room is a work in progress, that's what makes it fun.  The better deal to me is the full freezer going into winter.

Thanks, great trip.  I met the refer truck today and got my meat and euro mount, just 16 days after we got home.

How are you drawing out every year in New Mexico?  Are they landowner tags or guided hunts?  Nice bulls and tremendous success!!!!!

Landowner tags, we get 4 each season.   Lost hem two years but now put our deposit when we leave camp.  Already set for next season.

Decent price for the success we have.  We are unguided but with one employee to make sure we are on the right parts of the property.

Ran across some prints of my other bull from the muzzle loader season in 2004, so I scanned them to add here.

Can you send me a PM with a little more info on the landowner tag deal?  I wouldn't mind paying a little for DIY hunt with that kind of success.
