I definitely will!

I found him July 16th, saw him a couple of other times before season, but then he vanished. I hunted his Basin and the ones next to it 8 different days throughout September. Real tough conditions with 99 degree days, so I didn’t get too worked up or burnt out about not seeing him. Robby always says they’re there somewhere! So when rifle came around it was like, just gotta keep going back. Just happened he was there again on Oct 15th (opening day) finally.
Fantastic, sounds like you earned it.

Your parents must’ve dropped him on his head as a child in all seriousness nice bucks. Were those general season or controlled hunt bucks?

I was actually super excited that I was able to get a deer in Utah, unfortunately me and my dad had a miscommunication and I'm either not smiling with my eyes open, or smiling with my eyes closed looking stupid in the photos.

I guess the scope wasn't off after all (~120 yards, really don't remember)

Hahaha, yeah him being the first child, there is a great chance that he was dropped more than once. Elk are silly. 😂 his was a general season buck, my buck was a controlled buck. Weather was tough for the majority of the rifle hunt here in Idaho but it was still a great season for us.

Great bucks! Assuming that first photo is your brother, he looks like a young David Blanton from Realtree. (You may be too young to recognize the name. :) )
Yes he’s four years older than me. I could see the resemblance! I grew up watching as many hunting DVDs as possible so I remember him from the whitetail ones!

Got 3 down 2 weekends ago with 1 day left in the season! Harvested the buck on the right Friday midday after jumping him out of his bed that we were stalking him from.(That’s My buddies buck). Then Sunday morning spotted the middle buck skylined a mile away and booked it over to him and was able to harvest him(That's my buck). After I shot 15 does and 2 more bucks ran up the little ravine we were in so we called my dad and little brother and told them some deer were coming over the top. After the deer popped over the top some other hunters ended up spoiling them solittle brother and dad came over to take some pictures and then left and decided to continue hunting. Not even 10 minutes after they left me and my buddy spotted the deer running up the bottom of the valley directly to where my dad and brother just were at. We called them and told them to turn around and look back to the meadow they just crossed through and sure enough they got set up and the deer came walking by. He had a 130 yard shot on the small 3x3. Me and my buddy were only 300 yards away from where they shot and sure enough the buck was dead and then the skinning and 4.5 mile pack out began:)
