[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 440427, member: 2011"] 7mmRemMag, Sure enough that's a heck of a nice buck. You'll enjoy that hunt over and over as you look at it on the wall. All of your practice and commitment to sneak in that extra distance to get the shot at the range you've practiced is very commendable. That is a spot on shot. Congratulations!!!! About the antlers. I looked for the tail to be sure it wasn't a whitetail. :) Yep, the two species do cross. When this happens the trait that is lost is the "stoop" that the Muley does. That bouncing jump that they do. It seems that this is some kind of advantage to the Muley in its habitat and when lost there life expectancy goes down. I got this information for an Idaho fish cop. Hope he knew what he was talking about. Now for one of my dummer thoughts.:rolleyes: Getcher taxidermist to mount him on a whitetail form using a whitetail cape. Then score him as a whitetail.:D You'll have braggin' rights all over town.:D:D As if you don't have braggin' rights already.:cool: [/QUOTE]
