West Texas Hunt
First day my wife hammers a HUGE axis buck in velvet ! With a hour left of daylight I shot a pig at 918 yards! 187 inch hold over with my 270wsm! Everyone literally crapped themselves! My previous longest kill was 475 yards in Africa last year . Next day my wife shot a STUD 10 point that was super wide . Not a good shot and it took off running , called in the dogs to help track the deer . While waiting for the dogs we were able to put my taxidermist on a nice axis buck , his first Trophy in America! We tracked my wife's deer until midnight w/o luck and called it a night . The next morning started back tracking but never could recover the animal . The last day my wife shot another nice 10 point . . .....now it was time for me to try for my trophy whitetail . We rode and glassed the mountain sides in an area that was super rugged and steep . We located a whitetail that we estimated at + 170" but by the time I got a scope on him all I could see was a white arse cresting the ridge , ... HE GONE... Right at dark I spotted a very nice painted desert sheep across a valley on another ridge ..... I ranged the ram at 255 yards , sat down on the cliff took the breath and hammered big whitey ! His legs fell out from under him n down he went!! Holy crap so pumped considering I spent 4 days chasing sheep on my last trip that now I finally got the one I wanted .....now how to get to him ... 45 min later I was on top of the other ridge sitting next to my trophy !!ImageUploadedByTapatalk1422575777.659744.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1422575799.782905.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1422575817.075182.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1422575833.359869.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1422575853.526733.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free |

This is the second time I've hunted with that truck . The first time we took it through hell and back . This trip we were a little easier on it but I sure as hell don't know of any other stock truck that can do what that truck does
