View attachment 614585I found this guy in Wyoming antelope area *** on 10/15/2023. As you can see, the terrain was flat and cover sparse. He bedded down with his back to us which allowed us to close to 471 yards. I went prone and dialed in my dope. I sent a 147 grain Hornady ELDM from my Tikka T3X CTR 6.5 Creedmoor. He was hit hard and went down quickly.

Congrats! I’ve got a couple points to burn and debated spending this past year but gonna be next year after being in three weddings… weird how priorities change. Another point collector just waiting

Heck yeah! Great buck! I’m calling fake news on the 471 yard shot with the 6.5 Creedmoor! Everybody knows the bullet will bounce off at that distance! Well done!

 

[Boone-In-Wall]

Wow, that's crazy!

Thank you all for the kind words. I will definitely get him mounted. I'm not sure whether to do a European mount or traditional. I didn't see any sign of previous injury. I assume his horns are the product of a genetic defect. The visibility in his right eye was definitely impaired by the droopy right horn. Here's a pic showing the terrain and direction of the shot. It made for a challenging stalk.

I love a good shoulder mount, but I think I'd opt for a European on that guy.

The weird ones make a statement - I'm unique! - kinda like the guy who shot me. In Euro circles, German especially, the weird horned game is highly valued.

Cool buck

My partner on this hunt, Jason Wright, just finished up this mount for me. Left horn is 12.5". Right horn is 10.5".
