Hunting & Fishing My boys first Mulies (second one added)

[codyb]

He is starting late (14)by the standards of most but he and his brother both drew youth tags here in Nevada this year, here is his first.

Better than if I was pullin the trigger myself.













He was patient enough to listen to his dad and pass by some nice deer earlier in the hunt and ended up with this nice 3x4 30" Muley.

Can't even tell you how proud of him I was. He made a nice clean kill at 210yds with a Ruger model 1 in 25-06. After a short but , steep stalk.

Now we have to head back out in the afternoon and get his brothers.


Found his brothers this am. He is 12 and this was his first as well.

He was also a 3x4 but "just" 25". Boy made around an 80 yd shot with his 30-06. I was equally as thrilled with this one. He was too but, you would never know it from his picture cause he is not fond of the cold.

Outstanding job!

He has done something a lot of grown men will never do....30 in muley's are getting hard to come by anymore.

I am sure you are proud as hell and I for good reason.

WoW! His first buck goes 30" inches. I cant even count the serious hunters I know that have hunted year after year on public land looking for a 30" Mulie, let alone put it together and make it happen.

Re: My boys first Muley

Congrats on a very fine buck. Good luck on your other sons hunt, hopefully he will get one just as nice. One question, if he does get one just as nice, will you adopt me and take me on an outing to kill me a 30 incher to! Just kidding. Good luck and keep them hunting.

Re: My boys first Muley

Thanks for all the comments, my boy didn't realize how nice his buck was until he started reading them and we talked about it a bit more.

I understand all too well how rare they are. I'm one of those fellas who has been searching 39 years for one that size.

I don't recall what I had loaded in them. I don't load up much ammo for my hunting rigs. Probably game kings or the like with a Nosler.
