Clints 2010 AZ Giant 402 Bull

Well my cousin Clint was able to draw a tag of a lifetime last year, a northern AZ early rifle bull tag. After all the months of anticipation, within 2 hours of opening morning, it was all over. Clint took this amazing bull with a couple shots from about 25 yards. This was bull number 13 that he had in his sights in a matter of a few hours. He was passing great bulls and his patience was running thin. Some of the other bulls were not far behind this guy, but when this one stepped out, Brian gave him the go ahead. As the bull screamed in his face at a mere 25 yards, Clint let him have it. Unfortunately, they were so excited the footage is a little shaky! This bull scored 402 gross, and is larger than we had thought. We had followed this bull for a couple of years. He had made a move this year and became quite elusive. As you can see the antler configuration is very similar. With all the scouting that we do, it is nice to put some of these bulls on the ground so we know how big they really are. This helped Brian give Clint the go ahead on this monster bull. We also have some scouting video of this bull from 2009 that you can watch. Congrats Clint!

With 57 & 61.5" beams, this bull has it all.

Congrats Clint on a bull of a lifetime.

2011 Barbary Sheep

Well, this was a great hunt for some awesome animals. Once you have the sheep bug, you take what you can get I guess. Here are some pics of this great time. We were able to capture a lot of amazing video, which we will post at a later date. This is a challenging hunt to find quality rams on public land, but we have taken some dandy rams out of this country, including the largest which is 32". I missed a golden opportunity at a great ram, and with limited time, was not able to find another "shooter" ram. It was fun to get "buck fever" again, even though I missed, and listen to my brother give me a hard time for missing a chip shot. It was the next day that he grabbed the gun and made an amazing shot on his great ram.
