Nice bull! Where did you end up hitting him? I always like to know where those animals that plug up or don't bleed are hit to try and learn something from them.

I may or may not know of a way of placing a leghorns trap with extremely sharp jaws on top of a wood post near the chickens.

My dad almost started crying on the phone last night when I told him Adam got his cape! I considered not telling him and then surprising him with the finished mount for his birthday down the road, but he said he's glad I didn't wait as he might've died of anxiety slit his wrists before his next bday! He was so excited, it made the hunt all that much sweeter. So long story is he showed up with the frozen cape in a garbage bag wrapped in towels in his checked baggage. They called him back through security and to the front desk to tell him that wouldn't work (never gave a reason) so then he took a cab to Walmart from airport, bought a cooler and packing tape and repackaged it in cooler, paid for another bag, and resubmitted it. They made him wait to make sure TSA would take it. Again they said they would let him put it on the plane (again no reason). They said they were going to confiscate it. I guess if it had been me in the situation I would've skipped my flight and got another but I think he was so frustrated with the deal he just gave up. Last I heard was a text saying the above. Before he even landed, Big Browns was down there and had them sweet talked into giving it back! He has it safe and sound in his freezer. He didn't do it for reward money, in fact he sent me a text saying he didn't want any. He did it because he a heck of a good dude. It really blows my mind how many guys like that there are on this site. I also need to give a shout out to Flatlander as he texted me about 5 minutes later to tell me he would be willing to run down there as well! Sorry I will get pics up when I get them but the only one I have is a crappy cell pic. My family has 3 more bull tags coming up over the next couple weeks I'll put up a big post about all of them when we get back! Thanks again to Big Browns, Flatlander, and the whole CWT family!!

I don't know whether I was more excited when he shot the bull or when I found out Adam had the cape!! This is just great! Thanks again to Big Browns!

He got it!!! Big Browns is the man!!! It blows me away how many stand up guys there are on this site!! Stay tuned and I'll get a story put together and some pics! Thanks again Adam!!

Yeah, Big Browns is on it. Thanks so much for all he offers! I'll let everyon know how it goes!

Where are you located?

Good to hear. #6's or 7 1/2's will kill pheasants all day long for ya. Especially in a sub guage guns. The key is to put a pellet in nerve tissue on a pheasant, a #6 pellet will penetrate a pheasants head at 70 yards, so there's no need to go bigger, the key is getting as many pellets flying at em as you can! Good luck on the hunt, my dad uses 5's for everything and swears by them, I shoot heavy 7 1/2's here in ND most of the fall and switch to high brass 6's in December when they really smart.

Now you've got me curious as to what you're gonna do with it? Sorry I don't have any and I'm totally hijacking your thread but I've gotten an itch to buy the new beretta auto 28 and this caught my eye!!

Or you're just bad at scoring antelope. Doesn't look much bigger then 80-82 to me. It's tall but that only gets you a few inches. It doesn't lack mass but its not exceptional, about what you'd expect on a book buck. The prongs hurt it as far as being a monster score wise. Add a couple inches to each prong and you've got yourself a monster. I wouldn't be passing it up regardless. Nice buck, good picture. Well well well. I do believe the intent is to make the buck look bigger and I said they were good at accomplishing that. It is a big buck, the pic makes it look bigger. My apologies Azkiller, I mistook your post a bit. It's an incredible antelope!!!

This is an awesome story and awesome buck! I think he's a little bigger then 82" too! Congrats!

What a pig! Great story to boot! I don't think there is a more deserving guy on this forum! Congrats!

If you don't like the soles buy the hardscrabble hiker, similar boot but has a vibram sole. The only boot without vibram is the desert guide. They put a harder some on them as th rocks in az will chew up the vibrams but they sure do grip good!

They're really stiff, but they'll last you for years.

$900...

Was it a female and cubs?

Sorry guys, it's in ND. We will be driving down to UT then on to AZ for some elk hunts this fall so we could potentially work out a FTF delivery with a CWT member.

My dad just put this up on gunbroker, kinda wish he'd keep it as its a sweet rifle. He asked if I'd put it up here as I know this type of gun is a coues hunters dream! http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=438434440

Nice buck! Congrats! Your buddies look pissed!

You can get yourself 6 or 7 pairs and you'll wear out one pair a week and you just may get an entire season out of all of them!!

Total hi jack here but I've got one just like it but its only the call and the remote. I'd take $225 shipped if any of you are still looking.

Buy an outdoorsman male and femal adapter. Put one on your tripod, one on the window clamp and then the opposite side on your head. The. You can pop it on and off your tripod and window mount and only need one head.

Good deal. Let me know if it falls through.
