    First Muley

    this muley was definately hard earned. i don't come from a hunting family so i've been figuring out everything on my own, and the Journal has definately helped me. i hunted for four years before bagging this buck, and let me tell you, it is awfully hard to pass up small fork horns, especially when you have been trying for two or three years with nothing to show. i took this guy in northeastern wyoming on very limited, highly pressured public land with an OTC tag, done it myself. it may not be a huge buck by any means, but he's mine and i feel like i earned it. i used the boone&crockett calculator and scored him at 156 6/8 net, 162 3/8 gross.

    i should probably add that i took my girlfriend with me, she had never been hunting at all and we ended up with two muleys and two goats in three days. it was an awesome weekend.

    Be careful taking your gf with you, she just may like it. Then its gonna cost you twice as much to support your addiction. She won't be wanting no hand me down gear.
