Amy Ballard 2003
October 2003
Arizona
Amy had a tag for the October 2003 hunt. The first day of the hunt her and her husband spent the night in the truck and began hiking with flashlights in hand.
Within 2 hours of glassing her husband, Ryan, found this buck over 1000 yards away. Amy took out hiking by herself with the 22-250 and the 1000yard range finder while Ryan kept the buck in view with his binoculars. She got within shooting range and told her husband over the radio that it was 407yards away.
He told her to go for it. She shot the 50 grain bullet and killed it in one shot. Her Grandpa Eugene Merrill says, “it’s a better looking buck than his nephews Sean and Loren Merrill’s (whose bucks are on this website too).
