[QUOTE="elj1973, post: 2918300, member: 106376"] Was a spot and stalk/ truck hunt in Bighorn County, WY area. Week before the season Temps were in high 80's pushing 90. Opening day on the first it cooled a bit but still was hot. Covered lots of ground trying to find any herds and was not looking good. Seen 3 small bucks and very few does. The 2nd day it rained in the morning turning roads and two tracks to a sloppy mess. 3 rd day continued to rain and thought well...go and try to go on some main dirt roads to aleast get out there and see if I could turn up anything in a different area of the unit. Got caught in a down pour and almost got stuck in the clay. Slowly making trying not to get stuck on my way back out I spotted him about 700 yards out bedded all by himself in the middle of a golden field of grass. All I could see was the big hook and prongs sticking up and was able to stalk to a good shooting position then the wait was on. Seems like a eternity for him to stand up for the shot. Finally he got up and I shot broadside @ 585 high shoulder and DRT. All smiles after that no ground shrinkage of those prongs/hook. [/QUOTE]
