2nd Day of the Hunt


This morning was beautful! I woke up to a sliver of a moon. Headed back up to the burn area on Sedgewick and didn't see anything. Decided to head to some lower country where there is an old burn in the pinions. Found 3 small bucks together with the largest being a funky looking 3 point. The other two were 2x1's. One was in velvet and the other was hard horned. On the drive back to camp I saw another 2x1. These small bucks will be in trouble tomorrow. Not sure what to do this evening. Met a guy on the road that said a 9x11 was hit on the road last night on Hwy 53. Maybe I should go hunt the low country and look for a bomber!!!! May not see anything but that's usually where you find the big ones...

No Backstraps Tonight


Well, it looks like the only meat for me tonight is these brats. Played out a tip I got this evening but there was too much private land to try and figure out... Only saw a couple of does.... Tomorrow is another day...

Sunrise on Sedgewick


Sunrise was beautiful this morning! Saw 4 does and one little fork point. Forkies aren't on the hitlist until Monday. Gonna hike some thick ridges mid-day and then try a spot (tip) a friend told me about this afternoon.

Camp is Set! Fire is Going...


There's nothing better than a warm campfire and a tag in your pocket. I sure hope I get another crack at that big ol' buck I saw last year. There is an old burn on the top of Mt. Sedgewick where I saw him last year. Gonna be on top glassing at daybreak..... Gotta get my pack ready. Game on!!!!!

NM Muzzleloader Deer Hunt - Unit 10


Well, I'm off to New Mexico to hunt mule deer with my muzzleloader. Heading back to unit 10 to find that monster I saw last year. Going solo, but it should be a blast. Saw a small 2 point buck driving in so maybe its going to be a good hunt! Keep checking back for hunt updates....

What a great hunt!


What a great hunt! Fast & Furious, but a great time. I will be putting together a hunt report for this unit and posting it at a later time. Thanks for following and check back next weekend when I head back to Unit 10, NM for a muzzy deer hunt. Hunt Smart! Hunt Hard!

Utah Success!


The shot was quick and clean. What an incredible morning. I can't believe I found those antelope where I did. Shots are ringing out all over the valley so I guess a lot of hunters are settling on what they have found. I have quite a hike ahead of me so I had better go get my packer pack and head on down...
