Good story to go with a dandy buck! I always want a good hunt to go with the buck. I really hope I never get out of my truck, walk 20 yards down the trail and look up and there is a giant buck standing there and I shoot it. That would be a letdown of a hunt!
Congrats to you and best of luck...
I've always gone with an outfitter and have killed some dandy whitetails in the SE part of state.
They put a limit on non res tags a few years ago and now lucky to get drawn every 2nd or 3rd year.
Thanks for the pictures it was enjoyable reading about your hunt. Chukar are always a challenge. Some years are exceptional. I hunted Nevada most all my life every Saturday. The best part was watching the dog picking up scent then locking up
All fine and dandy, except for water. They get tired of Helena talking about lake access so they want to take ours away!
