Man it is that time of the year again and as most plains have been made and just wondering who else will be out chasing velvet mulies in the high country? I was just looking back over some of the past years threads and hunts guys have had in the past decade or so fun to look back at for sure...

I gave up reading at “wrong side won the civil war”. Lol what a total joke. 🤡🤡🤡 Internets......

Man it is a insane amount of time I can understand that. I am lucky that I live in a very central location as pertains to some of the best mulies anywhere in the world. I set up my life/work so that I can allocate the necessary time to both scouting a hunting. I also just enjoy the process of...

Nothing like looking over 100’s of bucks above 11,000 ft scouting then hunting the biggest one. Or it looks like I am the first to pick archery mule deer. Yea for me easy choice as there is nothing like it.

Thanks man I grew up kayaking (started at 11yrs and was running class 3 by 13 years old) my parents were teachers (dad a river rat) so we did a US western multiday every year in the summer. Also grew up doing a lot of float fishing in the 80's and 90's - or fishing is why I learned to row a...

Definitely not a conspiracy guy here.. As soon as it is available I will take it. Thinking back a few years or to 2001 man they stuck us like a pin cushion before we went to kayak the Zambezi river in Africa the first time.. Shots were rough took a while to get over it. Did not think twice...

I got a ridge line in 7mm for my wife this year. Could get a good deal and referral from a friend and topped it off w a zeiss 6-24 scope w custom turrets for 11,500’. Been a shooter so far.. 3 shot group.. 😳 Also the results was one shot bang flop at 320 ish yards for the wife.

I use lowa Tibet’s if I need a mountain boot or have a big pack on. Most days or almost all days the past few years I have been in trail running shoes or the Salomon speed cross gtx. Might try the Kona trail runner this year.

Thinking of getting 3-4 of these guys then going for a few walks...

Thanks he was once in a lifetime big. I put him at 36-37” wide w. 200” frame and pry 15-20” of extras.. Yep.. Hard to shoot any other buck once we saw him lol.

I had the pleasure of hunting a late season winter range hunt last year with my father in the same country we grew up hunting. Well some as a lot of ranches have sold and are now growing houses lol. Anyway had a great hunt and chased this guy around but did not get him. I spend most of my time...

Thanks man the taxi did a good job. Always a challenge getting it out as well as ya can. I was lucky that I got out literally as the snow started to fall or it pry would not be as perfect as it is. I have been carrying some of that spray on velvet stuff as many times I am more than a day from...

Just got my 2020 archery buck back from the taxi and glad to see the velvet preserved well. Me ma had never seen the buck and that was her face when I told her I was chasing a bigger one and kinda bummed I did not get it.. Right after the pic I got a stern talkin to about how “you can’t eat...

I am not sure if the Burris buck will ever be beaten. Today we follow these bucks year in and year out and if you have ever seen that buck in person it is just crazy how deep and big the forks are. When it gets to that level it almost comes down to kickers and deductions as there have been a...

South west colorado now holds both the wr typical (Burris buck posted above) and the wr velvet typical mule deer. While the velvet typical was taken a just a few miles to the south and east of the Burris buck it sure shows that there are some good genetics down in the south west to produce 2...

I hope your hunt is going well. It has taken a bit for me to say it but this happened to me as well this year. Once in a lifetime buck I had watched for 3 years fair to say the most massive buck 200"+ buck you have ever seen.. I should have hunted him on the opener of archery but had fingers...

I would hunt. Imo the older bucks are down 10-15” this year from a bigger water year.

Cool deal congratulations!

My wife got a bull. She earned this one again as we were backpacked 4 miles and 2600’ vertical feet above any trail into a wilderness area. We had our target bull as well as 3 bulls bugling all am - just after high noon this guy came out at 380yds she could not pass him. One shot bang flop...

My contribution and my 2020 buck getting a ride out. Cool thread thanks for bringing it back up!
