Alta late muzzleloader
« on: November 30, 2022, 10:12:19 AM »
Hard work pays off! Three weeks ago I received an email from Wdfw that I was next in line for An Alta unit muzzleloader mule deer tag. I was reluctant to accept it on short notice but my family changed our thanksgiving plans so I could go. This was a hard hunt in rough conditions. I passed up several bucks in the 3 days we hunted but I was able to tag the biggest buck I seen. I’ll cherish the memories of this hunt forever.

Great picture of the 3 of you…memories to store there
