Nice buck! I think I might have met your dad early yesterday morning. Does his hunting partner have a Honda crf150 and 230?
I don't believe so. His partner rides a Honda 110.

Wow, I was expecting a little buck when I opened the 30th big buck down thread. NOT! Thats a dream buck there for any state, let alone this one. Somewhere out there there is a govenor tag holder going DAMN!
:yeah:
Damn :yike: That is a beautiful looking buck. In my mind that's a perfect muley. He's typical, wide, good mass and has deep forks. What more could you ask for! Great job, congrats to your dad!

omg what a stud , thats why I get out every chance I can in hopes to find one like that. not often you see a general buck like that . was he on a migration route ?
Yes, this area doesnt get good until late in the season or weather hits. This same spot produced a 200 incher back in the 90's.

The buck was taken from a ground blind, after hiking into a remote area that has produced some decent bucks over the years. After sitting in the blind for 3 hours in heavy snow, I decided to relocate a few yards away at the base of a big tree so I could have some protection from the snow. Approximately 30 minutes later I noticed movement below me, as my buck of a lifetime suddenly appeared as he walked out of some thick timber. There was no need to count his points, as his size and mass were unlike any buck I have ever had the opportunity to shoot. I SLOWLY reached for my rifle, and he froze, and looked uphill in my direction. I froze as well, never taking my eyes off him. Eventually he looked downhill and continued walking. When I brought the rifle to my shoulder and removed the scope covers he froze again, looking uphill. It seemed as though he detected (or sensed) my presence, yet he was never able to spot me. After a few nerve racking seconds of "cat and mouse" I was able to take my shot. The shot took out both front shoulders, causing the big buck to drop to his knees. Because of the deep snow and steep terrain he slid, and tumbled down hill like a toboggan. After gathering my wits, organizing my pack, and giving the buck some time to either die, or bed down, I also slid down the hill like a toboggan, in hopes of finding my trophy buck. After finding him, I took a couple short video clips, recording my very special moment, then reached my friends on the radio, asking for some help getting him back to camp. The buck is a 6X7, and his green score is 188 1/8, (gross). For those who might be critical of me because I have asked that the location of the hunt be kept private, it is out of respect for the hunting friend who invited me to join him on this hunt.Beautiful buck :tup: Good job and good write up congrats again :tup:
