So Brandon did not draw this year. He recieved a phone call about 5 weeks ago and accepted a turned in tag. The hunt was already going and most of the tags had been filled already.
With only 12 points it was a no brainer on accepting. Biggest issue was he and his wife were expecting their first child mid October which by all accounts is the preferred time frame to hunt them due to the rut.
Brandon and his Dad made one bonsai trip down to get eyes on the unit and nearly killed a great ram.
We went down Halloween weekend 2 days ahead of Brandon and did some scouting. When he arrived we were in hunt mode and found 1 of 2 rams we had found. The other was bigger and the same ram they saw a few weeks ago but he crossed the unit boundary and was out of bounds. We didn’t know that until after we killed this ram but it was good to know why we couldn’t find him.
Brandon and his Dad made a great stalk on this ram as my brother and I watched from afar. 2 well placed shots around 225 yards away and the dream hunt was done!
