This was a buck that I was fortunate enough to kill on opening morning about five minutes after the sun was peaking over the mountains. The snow made things complicated on us. The buck is a 5x5 (including eye tines) and is 24" wide. He is nearly 23" tall and has pretty good mass. I was the only one (out of three) of us that had a tag. When he finally was on the ground...I had two great pack mules (friends) to load up. What a great hunt!
