Dad's buck



Well my dad filled 2 of 3 tags this fall. He got his moose and this past weekend took a nice white tail. I didn't go hunting but did have a great "Elder's Quorum Bonding Activity." I was finally able to put several rounds through the 12 Gauge I got while in Moscow. I was pleasantly surprised at how well I shot.

No 6-points

Well, unfortunetly I was unable to find a 6-point - plenty of other bulls, including a couple of 5 points but no 6-points. I had a great time hunting, seeing 40 to 80 head each day but the big bulls were somewhere else. This picture is of a 4 and 5-point that I could have shot at a number of different times. I had bulls within 10 yards of me once and 40 a couple of times - fun stuff. The picture below was taken from the top of Pot Mountain looking across the Taos Plateau toward the Latir Wilderness and the Costilla Peaks on the New Mexico, Colorado border.
