Paul Wilson 2008

Unit 22, Arizona

Here is what Paul said about his hunt:

Well this year I got lucky again and drew another 22 whitetail tag, three years in a row and as luck would have it, I was successful opening morning. He’s not the biggest, but he’s great for me. I scouted the area all year and my trail cams were showing great deer. I showed up three days prior to the hunt for some touch up scouting and was only able to glass up six bucks. Three of which I figured shooters, I have no idea where all my larger trail cam bucks disappeared too?? I guess that’s why their called the “grey ghosts”. I’m sure the hot weather didn’t help either. Anyways, I can’t nor will complain, Three tags in a row and three Coues! Two on my wall and soon to be a third! All solo hunts. Thanks so much! Paul Wilson

P.S I’d liked to have held out in hopes of something larger but I also drew a 22 Elk tag and vacation days had to be split between each hunt! Seven years is a long time to wait for an Elk tag!! 🙂
