Hey fellas. Its rodrunner from the fish'n forums. I always said I wanted to take a break from elk and go after muley bucks with my bow. This year I did just that. It was a huge challenge mentally and a very humbling expierence. After 9 stalks and no deer I was get'n frustrated. Stalk number 10 put me 24 yrds above a stud buck. I stood there for 2 hrs and 20 mins waitn for him to get up. Yep that long. Buck saw me draw and blew out of there. That mentally broke me. Thats a long time to stand and stare at a 180 inch class deers antlers and not get a shot. I was all but ready to give up. Well, stalk number 11 payed off!!! 38 yard shot, deer went 50 yards and tipped over.
I'm here to tell you that my feet are SORE from stalking in my socks!!!

thx everyone..I'm fortunate to have a wife who supports my obsession. I'm also fortunate to have a stubborn never give up will and confidence that keeps me roll'n!!! Believe me there were a couple times that I just wanted to say F-it and go back to camp and drink beer. Glad I toughed it out and stuck with it! I'm also a very humbled hunter. I've always focused my atention on elk. No doubt about it, Muleys are a different breed. Took some serious adjustments in my hunting tactics to bag one..I love it!!! Thx for listening. I'm still on my own little cloud.
