Pertinence pays off
•
Hunter:
Biggest fan: Charlie (Tripp’s dad)
Guide: Jerry Corliss

Before the hunt started, Jerry located a handful of bulls, and a couple of them were undoubtedly shooters! Day one was a bit of cat and mouse and with little patience. Not long before dark, Tripp and the crew would have a bull inside a gun range Jerry was familiar with. The group all agreed this bull with a giant bottom end would check all the boxes for Tripp’s first bull. Once on the gun, he made short work of the bull and could hang his tag on an excellent NM bull. Great work, guys. We will undoubtedly see more successful pics with this young man in the future.

In Honor of Sheep Week

Kristian was one of the lucky few who picked up a Desert Bighorn tag. In many cases, a sheep hunt is over on opening day. That is not the case for this hunt. The team would spend nearly a week searching for a mature ram that met the requirements. When they finally located this old ram, it was unanimously decided that he fit the bill. Kristian was able to make a good shot and bring this old ram down. Congratulations to you, young man. You earned this one!

Fast and Furious
•
Hunter: Kyle
Guide: Shane Collard
•
Kyle and his son came down to NM for a fast and furious antelope hunt. Shane had scouted for a few days and been watching over a couple of bucks on their hit list. This buck, in particular, was at the top of the list. Opening morning, they had this buck located shortly after sunrise. After a few attempts, the group would have this buck well inside rifle range, and Kyle was ready on the gun. Once the buck was broadside, the hunt was over.

Double Up

Hunters: Scott and Shannon

Guide: Shane Collard

Scott and Shannon were able to pull multiple tags in NM using this year. They started out hunting with their guide Shane and his wife Audra for elk in mid October where Shannon was able to kill his first bull elk. The team had some unfinished business together and got back together to chase mule deer. It didn’t take long before they had located some bachelor bucks and were able to get two of them on the ground. Great work guys!
