    Geez! Sorry you had to shoot a little one....

    I dont mean to sound like im not happy with my bull, I feel blessed to be able to harvestthis great bull. I just feel like I have some un finished buisness withe giant bulls I was on the whole hunt if you know what I mean.

    It didnt come across like you were unhappy to me. It is always difficult to put an animal down when you know and have been chasing bigger ones in the area. Great bull and always wanting a bigger better animal is what drives us all. Great job and well deserved!

    Gotcha. Just wanted to make sure I didnt come across the wrong way.

    Well I had the hunt of my life chasing big bulls. I had some good oppurtunities on son giant bulls, but couldnt close the deal. I figured I better end the hunt with this bull rather than go home with my tag. I had a great hunt and made some awesome memories with my dad and some good freinds.

    I agree with go at her pace. On my girlfriends first deer hunt i went at my normal hunt hard pace and by the end of the second day she was pooped out physically and mentally. On the 3rd day she shot a spike just because she wanted to get the hunt over with. On her second deer hunt I made myself go at her pace and she seemed like she enjoyed herself a lot more. She didn't get one but she passed on numerous small bucks I was very proud of her. I even enjoyed myself more, because I could tell she was enjoying herself.

    Both fighters are great! Im a big fan of both. I feel the same way as when Uriah Fabre and Jose Aldo fight. I didn't care who won as long as it was a good fight I kinda felt sorry for Uriah after that because Aldo just destroyed uriahs legs. I don't want to see anything like that happen Saturday. I say bendo in a decision.

    If it were me and some one had been on the bucks I would of actually just sat there and enjoyed the the show. But it is public land and competition is just part of the game. We had a situation a couple years ago on a muzzleloader hunt where we glassed up a nice 4x4 muley, right as the sun was coming up and a group of guys on a ranger stopped about 100 yards from us and started glassing towards where we were glassing and spotted the same buck. It then became a foot race to the buck. Our hunter and there hunter ended up missing the buck. I was heated on the way to the buck, and half way there I told myself its public land and that's what we get for glassing from the road. So I just calmed down and enjoyed the stalk. After the hunters missed, the other hunters confronted us and told us to get the heck out of there because that was there spot and they had spotted that buck the night before, so it was there buck. After some not so friendly words were exchanged and we went our separate ways, I realized we both thought we had rights to the buck, but like I said public land is public land and we all have the same rights to the game. Now ethics is a whole other story. All we can do is hunt hard and get away from people whenever possible. Good luck! Maybe you guys will find some bigger bucks. Everything happens for a reason.

    I agree with you. I don't mind helping people if they're willing to help themselves, but just giving up good info to anybody that won't put in any effort does not fly with me. Although I do enjoy helping out first time hunters and getting them there first animals more than I enjoy shooting one for myself. The only reason I don't like to give out good Info is because good info spreads like wild fire. I told a couple people about a good mule deer spot about 5 years ago. I guess they told a couple people and then they told a couple and so on, because before that I would hunt there and see one other guy now I don't even hunt there anymore because it's over run with hunters. It sucks!
