Hunt Report - Fallow & Four Horn

I spent the last few days hunting near Mountain Home with Rusty Kimbrell (aka "therancher") at his ranch. I had originally planned on hunting Sika, but after 2 1/2 days of chasing them around without any success....I switched over to Fallow and took this great old buck on the last afternoon! Also got a big ol' stinky Four Horn as well.

Rusty was a pleasure to be around, and I will definitely be back!

Here are a few pics for you guys....











And last, but certainly not least....a celebratory smoke and scotch

looks like a great hunt congrats

Nice pics, hope you taught my dad how to use a camera!

Very nice animals and great photographs.

congrats

Wade first off nice fallow buck and a wonderful old jacob's sheep. I personally think this is one of the most wonderful jacob skulls I have ever seen.

What do you plan on doing with him? If I were you I'd bleach the skull and mount it as is. I think the chick's name is Jenna Weller, she does a painted, rocked, art-decko type skull treatment. I'd probably go with that. My dad did a huge rambo ram of ours that died like 30 years ago like that and to this day he still looks amazing. Used aggots, fossils, and some turqoise. A jacob sheep would look good that way.

And I wouldn't be doing my duty if I didn't give you a bit of hell, so how is that you have lost weight but your face is getting fatter? Last time I saw you in a photo on AR you were the other way around. Fatter but your face was skinny. At least I maintain fat/fat where applicable.

I need to call you we should be hearing about moving back to Texas in a couple weeks.

cheers,

Big Wonderful Wyoming/Roo Basher

Way to go on a unique fallow and nice ram!

Stud 4 horn and nice fallow, congrats.

Very nice!!! Congrats on a great hunt

He had one of those big ol gnarly phones. Anybody can take pics with them.

biggest 4 horn ive ever seen ! congrads

Some very good looking Animals.

impressive trophies; congrats!

Awesome four horn. Congrats on both

Roo,

I'm getting Euro mounts with mesquite plaques done on both animals.

And I don't know what to tell you about my fat face...lol. I haven't lost any weight. I've been around 185-190 for at least 5 years. The only thing that really fluctuates on me is the amount of facial hair I have...haha.

Those 4horns were the result of the YO strategy of plying you with "free" alcohol and then bringing out the fugly stuff. The 4 horns are always last. Works pretty good on me...

Some people have obese faces, I am sure you claim it for a disability.

Honestly though I am just messing with you. Must be the beard and camera angle. You always seem to be a skinny guy.

Good looking photography too, what camera and lens are you using, and are you using a filter?

Camera is a Nikon D5100 with Nikkor 18-55mm lens....no filter, just a few adjustments in Adobe Lightroom for exposure/contrast.

Big Iron is a great place to hunt and Rusty, well he's one of the best people to hunt with. Glad you had a nice hunt and enjoyed the spectacular view off the back porch.

Don't stroke his ego, how much did he pay you to say that?

Nice stuff there eland slayer. I saw you at the DSC show last month was too afraid to go talk to you.

No payment received...is he offering any? I am willing to go a bit farther on my praise for the right price.

Haha....not sure why, you should have stopped and said "hello".

Terrific animals and great pics as usual Wade

Great looking animals sir! Well done. Baker

Thanks Wade,

I'll look into the Camera bit.

Actually I don't think they even make the D5100 anymore. I believe they make a D5200 and D5300 now....which are basically the same camera with slightly upgraded features.

Nice animals and pictures

great pics. Congrats........
