Prayer sent. Stay positive and stay in the moment! Very hard to do but it is the only thing you can control! My eight month old had tested my "in the moment" concept since before he was born but god has blessed us!

Those are so great mounts but the fox Im sure was hard to mount but the creativety is what impresses me the most! Great job! -

Great story! Looks like fun and the CO cool weather! Cannot beat it! Thanks for post. Have you been to the area before? Just wondering how you picked the spot. -
Good info! I dont know much about bears but that makes sense!
-

I just had an Ah Ha moment! Not sure if anyone has notice but sometimes the time stamp of the post did not match up with the actual time that is was posted. I looked in "My Setting" and notice that you can change the time zone (Mountain) so that the proper time is reflected. FYI.

Pedestal Mule Deer and Antelope
trophyhnter replied to swwildlife's topic in Southwest Wildlife Taxidermy
Looks great! How long does it take you to complete a mount like that? -
WOW, great buck and mount! Great mass! I wish his antlers were dark to better show off the mass.

Bill, You have my permission to edit and comment on my posts. Every time I write a post, all I can think of is my high school and college teachers that beat proper grammar and sentence structure into me because I don't think I am writing correctly! ( I think this is a comma splice) My high school teacher would grade our papers and allow us the rewrite the paper to correct the errors (like common splices, run on sentences, and so on) to increase one letter grade of the paper if the rewrite was 100% correct! It was a lot harder than it sounds!

Looking for someone with 20 bonus points or more for deer
trophyhnter replied to roninflag's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
Trophy i have OVER 20 bonus point for antelope. Good, hopefully you are in the 24 or 23 range so you can pick your unit. By the way, I like the idea of a partnership to get drawn! -
Great pics! cannot get anymore natural than water! So simple its genius!
-
Yup, hiking it in along with a 40lb. bag of trace minerals. I'll set out 100lbs. of corn and 40 lbs. of minerals each set per month at 5 different sets. Closer to the opener in Aug. we'll step up the corn and add sweet feed. I try to replenish the feed weekly starting the 1st of Aug. I found that the closer to water the minerals are, the more they'll hit it. The corn and sweet feed they'll travel for. Wow! THAT'S DEDICATION! Hope you stick on in August! Again good info!

I havent tried it yet but here is what i was thinking: locate a new site with mature trees close by and pile up dead and downed branches/trees around on the sides parrallel the game trail and tie long branched to the living trees that would allow deer to get in and out. Placing the branches in the same spacing as they do at the water tank projects. Sounds like a lot of work but it might work.

Looking for someone with 20 bonus points or more for deer
trophyhnter replied to roninflag's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
If you want someone to apply with you then you need someone with the same number of points or one less otherwise the points per applicant is added and divided by the number of applicants. Also, the latest stats show that for antelope the max number of points and number of applicants is: 24 pts-4hunters, 23pts-12 hunters, 22pts-36hunters; 21pts-144hunters, 20pts-279hunters......that does not include nonresident hunters. My friends had 20 pts this year and they didnt get drawn.....You have a better chance then people with less points but as you can see your not a lock just yet. Good luck next year and hopefully we wont need to wait for max points to hunt! As a side note, I was drawn in 1998 with 3 points in a unit that had 1 tag and that same year my brother and his friend applied together and were drawn in a unit with 3 tags and they also had 3 points! -
Great Pics. I have a lion tag that is buring a hole in my pocket if you need help! Good luck on the upcoming season!

Good info. Are you hiking in with the 50lb of corn and placing it all at once or are placing the 50lb bag in several trips as you check your camera?
