Oh Mike I'm sorry but your wrong. I had both mounted. I have the one the cocoa hen called in on the wall already. Ha ha. :lol:

And Dean is bringing down the Giant I called away from 50 hens. It walked over 1 mile through a river and three roads to find my GP call. :mrgreen: :thumbup: :bootyshake:

Not sporting unless you held the light (not in excess of 250,000 CP) yourself, or if guided, only source of light was a lit pine knot (primitive hunt). Real hunters only use moonlight. Nice job collecting and mounting, but why did you mount the limbs on the floor rather than wall??? :wink:

Nice mounts, I like the way the group is all hanging together. Congratulations and I hope you get the Ocellated fever in time. There is a brand new facility/complex built right across the street from the place we stayed. Unbelievable difference in accommodations by the pictures I have seen. It's a shame that something like this was not built in the past with all the money that was taken in by the other outfitter.
I have met the owner of Yukkutz hunting (Manuel) and he is doing it right!
When in doubt,show up early. Think less. Feel more. Ask once. Give thanks often. Expect the best. Appreciate everything. Never give up. Make it fun. Lead. Invent. Regroup. Wink. Chill. Smile. And live as if your success was inevitable, and so it shall be.

Fantastic! I don't have all of my firsts mounted but I have the tail feathers.
My eastern was killed in '95 and my last (Goulds) was killed in '10.

I hunted on ranch that had a trial hunt to see if they wanted to sell hunts west of Durango called the Mancinas Ranch. It was normally a place for wealthy Mexican to go for R and R.
