Re: 190" california D5 buck and freak non typical

I knew I read it somewhere. I think it's in the foreward in Swan's book.

I'm sure plagiarism is nothing foreign for Mr. Houston.

Re: 190" california D5 buck and freak non typical

Check out these words of wisdom from the Deer Master himself: "The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. Then why do I hunt? I hunt for the same rea...

Re: MuleyMadness Roll Call

I'm a wildlife biologist for a government agency. I live in northern CA and I'm a die hard deer guy who can't seem to get enough of it. I have a wife and 3 girls who are very supportive of my passion. I like to do backpack hunts in our wilderness areas (Alps and Emigrant) and typically one to two ou...

New Mexico GMU 36 Archery

We drew the archery (9/1-22 and 1/1-15) for GMU 36 as our second choice. We plan on going down for the January hunt. I'm just looking for any information anyone may have regarding this unit.

I've heard it can be a decent hunt for numbers of deer.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Paunsaugunt Archery!!

Well, like I mentioned it was a great hunt. In 13 days of scouting/hunting I got to look at 420 bucks. Now before you get too excited about this, yes some of these were the same bucks from one day to the next, but not were the same buck in the same day. All in all, we figure that somewhere between 2...

Re: Paunsaugunt Archery!!

Yeah, I tagged out on the seventh day of the hunt with this nice tall 29.5" 5x4. It wasn't the biggest buck that I saw, but it's my best buck to date. I was totally thrilled with the hunt....what a place.

Re: Paunsaugunt Archery!!

Fellas, Glad to see that the Pauns thread is still alive and kicking. As for Black Magic, I lucked into an encounter with him 2 days before the season. I got some decent footage of him with a group of other bucks. Black Magic definitely gets your attention! I hunted the area the first two days of th...

Re: Paunsaugunt Archery!!

Paunsaugunt1,
No I haven't been out scouting yet. I'm leaving on Friday the 8th to go down and I'll scout until the opener. What do you mean by a hunt? Is this a good thing or a bad thing....now you've got me wondering!

Re: Paunsaugunt Archery!!

I hunted out of Meeker, CO the last 3 years, so I'm just happy to not have to put up with that rat race this year. My friends brother and mother drew this tag in consecutive years a couple of years ago and had great hunts. I know with archery, sometimes you can be snakebit on the success end of it s...
