Okay, add grizzly bear to my list, and a mountain lion

LoL OK so my coworker and I had this same conversation over lunch one day. He fancies himself a shooter but he is not a hunter. Told him I could "hunt" him and he would never see it coming. We talked about tagging with a paint ball below the shoulders but still haven't put the ROE together. Probably never pull this off. Would be a lot of fun but could end up in a SWAT standoff if somebody saw this. That would be totally irresponsible.
A little bit of work on line and I had his home address, where his wife works and pics of his neighborhood. He was a bit surprised. Hey man just like reading a topo map and checking game cams. In two weeks I could have him patterned. Could prolly take him down with a wrist rocket!

I think a big Mule deer is the most sought after to get.....And maybe the most Dinero.... I can understand that. There’s something about a big mulie that’s hard to beat. I chased one and never could close the deal. I still think about that deer.

If this doesn’t deserve a Bert stare, I don’t know what does.

Leopard. And maybe this guy, or one like him (they call 'em "scrum cap" bulls. Rugby term): And of course...a big, honkin' bull elephant.

Hopefully the day will come when Eastern Wild Turkeys are once again abundant in East Texas. But I doubt it will happen in my lifetime. I haven't seen any on my place in years and then it was only in the spring, this fall and winter I have 4 on cam coming in to 3 different feeders regularly! Cottontails and roadrunners have also returned! I have not hunted easterns in a few years but I have a place (public) I could go every year and get into them. Shot several over the years. Long walk in and I never saw anybody back in there either. Did see a "hunter" 1/4 from our trucks one time though. Dam those beards on them old gobblers were true paint brushes also!

Some would consider him a "cull" or sub-par. Others, like me, consider an ancient old warrior like that a true trophy. Either way, a bull is a bull and there ain't no $ discount.

North America: Mountain Goat, musk ox, desert bighorn, Rocky Mountain bighorn, caribou, blacktail deer, Kodak Brown Bear, Dall sheep, Fannin sheep,
Exotic: Hippo, Croc, addax, Sable, Bushpig, Ibex, Elephant, leopard, giant red stag (NZ), eland (TX),
I think the only way I would ever get all these would involve a power ball and 5 matching numbers.

All I want is a really nice WT buck from my own property. 5 years in and nothing yet. I’m in the exact same boat.

I’m always looking for a good mule deer hunt.
In the near future I want to hunt a mountain goat, snow sheep in Russia and a Tur.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Elk, moose, pronghorn, mule deer and caribou. Pretty much my list minus the Mule deer since I can hunt those as it is.

Realistically, I'd like to do black bear, pronghorn, and mule deer in the next 5 years. I plan on Cape buffalo, nyala, and bushbuck on the next trip across the pond.
