Well after fighting with not 1, not 2, but 6 poachers on the property me and my buddy were hunting, we actually managed to get some hunting done. After the opening day fiasco, we sat on a small reservoir and we spotted 2 bucks and a doe feeding towards us. We split up and I hid behind a small sagebrush plant (somehow it hid me *see background*) and the doe practically stepped on me as I waited for a clear shot of the biggest of the two bucks. He measures 14.25 inches from base to tip. According to MT FWP it is a good buck for the 480 unit and is considered a trophy by FWP regulations. I am having him European mounted for my office. I shot him with my Savage 110E chambered in 7mmRemMag (160grain Accubonds) topped with a Burris 4.5x14 Fulfield II. (By the way I didn't realize how much of a tool I looked like in the pic until I saw it.)  "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act, but a habit"--Aristotle (384BC-322BC) | ||

NICE going! That's a terrific 'lope. So what became of the poachers? Did they shoot anything? Bobby Μολὼν λαβέ The most important thing in life is not what we do but how and why we do it. - Nana Mouskouri | |||

LOL! nice 'lope. I can see how you fooled him, since you look like you would just disappear behind that sagebrush.
