My first archery mule deer taken over water in western Colorado. 

Had a difficult hunt in Arizona. Got this little guy on the last day.  Coues deer are also in the area and my tag was for a mule deer.   This guy was small in size for a mule deer and also had the antlers of a Coues deer.   Had all the other markings of a mule deer. Maybe a little bit of both?  (It does happen). Shot with a 25-06 

An average 4X3 mule deer taken in Nevada  with a 25-06 at 250 yards above timber in eastern Nevada.

A pronghorn doe taken in Wyoming at 272 yards with a 25-06

A nice mule deer taken in southern Colorado at 100 yards with a 243 proving once again it’s not what you shoot but how well you shoot what you have. A fourth season hunt at the start of the rut.  This finished my 2017 western trip  filling all 5 of the tags I had. 

After the rut muzzleloader elk hunt in Arizona. Spotted the bull on a hill about 800 yards away. Made the move on him and reloacated him at 60 yards walking parallel toward me.   5X5 broken to a 5X4 during the rut.  CVA 50 cal using 120 grs of 777 and Barnes 250

Wyoming 4X4  mule deer taken in he Bighorn Mtns

Hunting NW Colorado during the antelope rifle season.  I found this buck and made the 400 yard shot with the 243. Approximately 13”. I had to leave overnight because of the distance. That might the coyotes cleaned the entire carcass. 

Hunting in Wyoming with my brothers. The trip had special meaning as my brother’s wife had just passed after a 7 year battle. This trip want about the harvest. Opening day I came across this mule deer and made the 200 yards shot with a 270 

Tried something new this year. Trapped as a teenager but decided to give bear a try this year. Missed one the first night but after some adjustments I had just gone to bed when I received a picture of a bear in my snare.   I might try this again next year. 

Traveled Downeast with Tanner mostly looking for birds when we found this guy. Shot him at 11am with the 257Roberts and Tanner did an excellent tracking job with very little blood 

Marsh River Outfitters 

Took a trip to the North Maine Woods in search of some partridge. Was able to find 5 getting my limit with the 20ga

Spent august baiting.  First day I got to sit as the boys were busy. Sat on “Pine” bait and had this guy come in after two hours

15 yards recovery with the same ole 30-30 I used to kill my first bear in 1979 

Anna Soltau

Hunting AZ for a rifle elk hunt   Took 6 days before I found this elk with 5 cows and 2 spikes. 

179 yards 

Reset the snare the day before after it had been a few days.  Had a smaller bear pull out prior. 
Checked the camera and this  boat was securely caught during the night. Got to the site at daybreak 

Deer hunt to Wyoming with my brothers. Changed plans due to fire in the Bighorns.  Missed a nice deer the day before. Scott and I headed out at daybreak and found this one in the first canyon head 200 yards from camp 

Dean Jackson

Turkey on the left shot with a shotgun on the same day as the other one. 

Archery turkey on the right.  Shot the other one later in the day

I was able to catch this 43” bass on a trip with Brody while sea sick. Lol.  The best part of the trip was each boy got to catch one as well.

I was lucky to draw a Bighorn sheep tag in Wyoming. On my fourth day of hunting I tried a drainage a friend had shot a sheep in 20 years ago. I was packing in with six days of supplies. Almost two hours into the hike I spotted three rams. I took the broadside one at 233 yards with  a 7mm-08. After processing him, gutless method,  I had to leave him over night and  came back the next morning. Heavy grizzly country makes you nervous at best returning to a kill site alone. 

8 year old ram
3/4+ curl
Packed approximately 100 lbs
10,500 feet

I liked all your updates on fb.   Congratulations 

Congratulations.  Brody and I doubled up on Monday night.    That’s second time we have done that and Andrew came along and helped.  Was a good memory for sure.    I will post in a bit 

Zach Harriman

Finally after three days of trying this sow made her mistake. One of three bears on the site during the night.  The Maine Bear Snare did its thing   The same site I snared a bear last year. Osborn Maine 

Brody shot one with his bow once and I made him eat it.   It was actually really good. 

I heard you’re better in the mountains.   Haha    

Awesome Perry, congratulations and thanks for
sharing.  

Welcome back Perry! What’s the weight on this one?

Have no idea. Was “processed” using the gutless procedure and packed out     202 lbs of meat at the butcher. 

Congrats,  We just got back last night.  The boys got a "Stava" in zone 4.  22 points 60 inch spread, We had to pack it out 1/2 mile so no official weight.  we are guessing 950 to 1000 lbs.


Thanks for all the uploads! Dunno if you've noticed but you're actually meant to have a few more badges earned by now, based on your stats. It's a bug with the site I'm trying to hunt down..

Awesome!  What did it score?  Lottery? Guided?  We need details!  

This wasn’t a guided hunt. DIY.   I never had it officially scored but it misses P&Y but a little bit. As a non-resident it can take years to get an Arizona elk permit 

Nice pic! Feel free to classify these as 'bovid' for more points and higher rankings on our leaderboard. We will be adding more specific categories in the near future.
