After wathcing many hunters chase antelpoe out in eastern colorado over the weekend we decided to try mid-week. It turned out awesome, it was our first hunt together since we got married over a year and half ago. Not bad for my first buck, 12" at the curl! He was a very old herd buck, I think on the decline. He weighed almost 90 lbs field dressed, very big body. Now its onto Deer and Elk. Hope to post more pics this year! (SO glad for photoshop, my wife really cleaned up the blood around his mouth in the pic, trying to keep it clean)
Praise the Lord!

Great job on your hunt. You will always remember this one. Very nice and tell Nae good job too. Are you going to European mount it or shoulder? Jessica's first doe had horns too, pretty neat.

Probably just euro mount, if I can find time to get er done! We have been cutting up steaks and making jerky all weekend. They both taste mighty fine! I will try and get a side view of him posted (I don't really have any good pics from that angle)

Well I got him back fron the tax, and the euro was not an option but still looks good for my first goat, unofficall score was 74 2/8, one more year and this guy might have made the book.
