Rogers Second Mexico Buck Over 110 B&C!

After hunting Old Mexico for the first time in his life he was hooked.  When Roger entered Old Mexico for the second time the stakes were higher.  While hunting hard for three days we had not seen a buck that we wanted to harvest.  After talking to some of the cowboys on our ranch we decided to hunt a part of the ranch that had not been hunted in years.  The next morning found us following the directions of the cowboy with his broken English and my poor Spanish we were a little lost.  Around 8:30 am I had found around 10 does on the same ridge we were on, after watching them walk away the most awesome sight ever stepped around a tree and looked right at us.  It was the most awesome buck ever this buck had it all, width, length, mass, over 5 points per side along with a 8 inch drop tine on the left side.  After this buck started to run we did not push on the buck since we had 4 more days to hunt the buck.  After returning to the ranch and talking to the cowboys it was an awful feeling.... This buck was not on our ranch!! Two days later I could finally glass again since I had been crying for two days and unable to glass (Just Joking, that is how I felt),  I had found a great buck on our ranch.  After shooting at a Mountain Lion in the morning this buck was in Rogers sights the same evening.  One well placed shot and Roger had just killed his second buck over 110 B&C.

128 Inches of Adrenalin!

After hunting Old Mexico three years in a row and already killing a 120, 112, and a 108 this trip was about helping my friends kill some great bucks.  My thoughts were "seriously whats the odds of topping a 120 B&C buck".  That all changed in the first hour of the first day! Only 45 minutes into glassing I glassed a buck that looked to be around 115 B&C just as he topped over a far ridge.  Glassing for another 45 minutes we finally decided it was time to take a closer look at the buck I had seen previous.  After a short quad ride and a mile walk this is the view I had in my 15x56 Swarovski binoculars!


After being a horrible friend and completely forgetting my original game plan of  helping them kill first. For a split second I thought about letting one of them shoot this deer. Then soon coming to my senses my thoughts instantly changed to "after I kill this monster I will have the rest of the hunt to help them".  After a few adrenalin charged wild shots, I finally got it together and we were able to start the celebration!!!!

His eye guards were just over 8 inches a piece.

The final score came in at 128 5/8 Gross B&C.  Never in my life did I think I would kill another buck over the 120 B&C mark.  I guess that's why you hunt Old Mexico, you never know!!

Mexico Drop Tine Buck Christmas Present!

After receiving a fully outfitted hunt in Old Mexico from his wife for Christmas, Roger was on cloud nine. Sixteen days later Roger and I were in Old Mexico trying to harvest the first Coues Whitetail of his life.  Roger was hoping to break the 100 B&C mark, I was trying to break the 115 B&C mark for him. Yes our standards were a little different.  After having Roger pass on numerous bucks over 100 B&C.  I had finally found the buck worth the wait, and one of only three Coues deer I had seen on the hoof with a drop tine.  The rest is history!!

This is buck was found from over two miles away,  we then moved in and got a closer look to make sure he was what we were looking for.

With the rut in full swing we had to wait for this buck to stop chasing five does and a smaller buck to finally get the shot we were looking for.

Rogers buck scored just over 114 B&C.
