[QUOTE="howard3, post: 1995130, member: 5407"] It was a guided hunt on one of Utah's CWMU's. We had been glassing nice bulls for 2 days, but had not found the "one" I was hoping for. On the 3rd morning, we spotted a bull low and across the canyon from us. My guide got him in his Swaro spotting scope + iPhone Phone Skope combo, and we decided to go after him. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screen Shot 2020-10-05 at 4.20.42 PM.jpeg"]218194[/ATTACH] He was 1180 yards away, so we dropped down till we hit an opening in the scrub oak where the range was 847. I set up on my sticks for the shot. There was no wind, and we were now almost level with the bull, so no up/down angle to consider. Took 2 hits in the right shoulder to put him down.
