2004 Halloween Monster

Hi Guys, I've looked around the site a little before but decided to join today. My first deer was a forkhorn muley buck in my home state of SD when I was 12. I've shot a few muleys since then but mostly whitetails. In 2004 I burned my 5 CO pref points on a "sleeper" unit that is not really a sleeper anymore. It was a late season hunt in the SW region of CO. Had some snow, saw quite a few bucks. With some skill and a lot of luck here is the buck I tagged. He measures 31 1/2" outside (including the sticker points), has lots of mass, and gross scores about 190. I killed him on Oct 31 so I call him my "Halloween Monster".
