Not a bad one for free range in the desert. Lots of tasty meat in the freezer and even managed to get some dove hunting in
and limited out. Got to love west Texas.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

Really nice bull. I was just recently told about the elk quality in west Texas, and this confirms it.

This was my wife's bull. It was our second year elk hunting with Mike and our second year of having a successful hunt! If you are looking for the experience of hearing elk bugles echo off of mountains, then by all means go to Colorado. If you want a realistic chance at a 300+" bull elk, go to West Texas! And if you're going to hunt West Texas, Mike provides a first rate hunt. Don't let the high success rates fool you, these are fair chase hunts and Mike and his guides works their tails off putting you on the animals.

She shot this bull on our "scouting trip" the evening before the hunt started. After her early success, we let Mike know that if he had other things to do, we would be glad to head back to our deer lease in Junction and do a little bow hunting. I'm glad he talked us into staying!! We had a ball the next couple of days dove hunting (we were covered up in dove and shot limits pretty darn quick), rabbit hunting, and just having a good time.

Hats off to Mike for providing a great time every time we book with him. Looking forward to Mountain Lion next!

Our limits of dove (took like an hour and a half) turned out quite tasty!
