The Giant 7x7!!

Check out this bull we hunted with a muzzle loader but could never seem to get close enough for the shot with the primitive weapon.  It was like this bull had nine lives.  This video is from one morning when we had the opportunity to watch this bull for a while in low light.  Sorry for the poor quality but the light was not there to get better footage.

The Huge bull that walks away!

Here are some pictures and a short video of one of the bulls my hunters let walk in search of that ultimate prize.  Most of the time I have no issue with them passing, and to tell you the truth it is usually me saying don't shoot to them.  One of my hunters asked me if "don't shoot" were my favorite words to say.  I always want to see my hunters kill the largest animal possible and if that means passing on animals that would qualify for the record to kill a larger animal then so be it, but this one got to me.   I had seen him a couple times prior, and then we went in to kill him, or so I though.  This bull was passed at 250 yards with a rifle in hand and tag in the back pocket.  On the video look at the extra that comes off the left side of the rack, it is skinny you have to look close.

Here is a short video clip of the bull as I stand beside my hunter.

Titleist Elk Video!

We watched this bull for over two years as he grew into the awesome elk that he was.  We were in contact with the raffle hunter and he decided to hunt a different unit and ended up killing a smaller elk.  With all our hunters in units other than the unit Titleist lived in we could only hope he would survive another year.  He was killed in a muzzleloader hunt the same year and the score I saw was over 405. The video and the pictures you are seeing came after a large rain storm and I actually walked in circles untill I cut the tracks and then followed the tracks for about 2 miles before catching up to these two bulls.  Enjoy..



Snow Update!

The Phoenix news channels are reporting around 6-8 inches for Show Low, my house got more for sure.  Here is a couple of update pics.  The table in the back yard is showing 13 inches.  Grow those antlers!!

Snow in elk country!

With the elk loosing there antlers as we speak this moisture could not of came at a better time.  They are calling for 8-24 inches of snow before the storm leaves the high country.  The White Mountains area have not been as dry as the Northern part of the state but we are still in need of moisture.  This should give the grass a good start as long as we get some moisture through out the spring to keep it going. Grow those antlers!!!!

These pictures were taken around noon on Sunday while it was still snowing hard.

Flare the 88 inch Antelope Update.

I just got a picture from Brian,  he is the hunter we guided that killed the Antelope we named Flare.  His mount is already done and looks very nice hanging on the wall.  Check out they way Flare looked from years back to many years into the future.

Kaibab beauty!!

While hunting with my wife and boys on the the East side Kaibab early hunt this year, we saw numerous good bucks and one really awesome buck.  We glassed this buck up from about 1800 yards away with five other bucks.  Once I quit taking video of the buck the hunt was on.  We had to cross a large canyon then we would have an approx 300 yard shot at this awesome buck.  Long story short this buck was shot seconds before we were pulling the trigger by another hunter.  I told her "Thats a chance you take while hunting public land", she informed me that was easy for me to say since it was not my tag and then "smiled".  Many of you probably saw the kill photos of this awesome deer.  The funny thing is I had a kill photo sent to my phone with in 24 hours of watching him get shot.  Everything I saw about the deer they were saying he scored a little over 200 B&C.  Congrats to the hunter.
Here are a couple still photos.

Here is a short video clip of the buck.

It is hard to take a pic of this to make it look good not hanging fron the ceiling lit up.

Archery Javelina Sucess!

For the second year in a row Skyler has arrowed one of those awesome little animals called a Javelina.  Hunting Javelina with kids is awesome and even better when those kids are using a bow and arrow.  After about five stalks where the wind decided to blow the opposite direction at the exact wrong time, or a spooked whitetail blew the heard out before we have a chance.  It finally happened, a 30 yard shot and 10 yard blood trail.

The two blade Rage did its job!!

Skyler is shooting 43 pounds and the two blade rage went through both shoulders and created a huge entry and exit hole.  The hole you see in the picture is the entry hole.  I am a big beliver in the two blade rage and the way it performed with his low draw weight.
