California Bighorn on the Oak Creek mountain range
Morning hike with the kids never disappoints
First swan hunt. Knox’s (13) grandpa has mentored him in all things hunting for years and he got his first swan this year! It was a great experience for grandson and grandfather. I’m Knox’s mom and I’m so thankful for a dad who took me hunting and is now teaching my children the art of hunting.

Up to Fishlake last week where I know I can come to find these majestic beauts. I went to take photos of stacked aluminum boats by the harbor but fell short as they had they all stored already. As I was leaving these majestic birds were perched for shots to taken.
I finally drew out for my limited entry Manti bull elk hunt. I’ve been putting in for 15 years four years ago. I was diagnosed with an aggressive prostate cancer after the surgeries radiation hormone treatments a lot of side effects blood clots in the lungs. Now I’m on Oxygen full-time, my granddaughter turned 16 this year, her birthday is the same as mine. They now live in Wyoming, but I was able to mentor her on my hunt. We hunted both weekends seen a lot of bull, but they are a bit skittish on the last Saturday. She was able to find the one she wanted and after three shots, she was able to take it down , we only had to drag it. 100 feet what anexperience for a lifetime.

Hey Adam, I got a call from Utah Dept of Wildlife a week before the Limited entry Late Season hunt, letting me know that someone had decided not to take their draw and that I had been picked to get the tag. I accepted the tag in about .0001 of a second, and then got to making a plan on how to hunt, seeing as the hunt began the following Friday and I hadn’t done any type of pre-hunt planning or scouting. One of my buddies put me in touch with his buddy Shane with Shane Outfitters. My Dad, and 2 buddies joined me on the Hunt. We saw some really awesome bulls a few days leading upto opening morning which we had our eyes on. We made a game plan to go and hunt them and found a group of good 320-370 bulls, however they were 800 yards on an opposite ridge, and with my dad being an older guy, I didn’t think he’d make the hike, so we decided to head down the mountain and come back in the morning of day 2 of the Hunt. As we were coming out of the canyon, a bull presented himself to me at 297 yards with 20 minutes before the end of legal shooting light broadside. I took the opportunity with my buddies 300 Short mag and I now have a punched tag and a lifetime of awesome memories. He wasn’t the biggest bull, and I feel like the hunting industry has such a focus on big bulls, however in my opinion It’s not the size of the bull you get, but it’s the opportunity and the memories you make while your out in the wilderness. Super cool Bull with some awesome memories.
