Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

If you see one or two 180-inch bucks in a season, that tag is worth half your life in points in Montana.

Unless the stars align, a 180 buck won't happen. mtmuley

Ok so if I kill a 180" buck, on public land, in unit 261 @mtmuley will buy a keg and throw a party and everyone in this thread is invited.

Big buck or not, spending some time in 261 has been a blast. Stayed with my wife in the gird point look out this summer and glassed lots of great bighorn rams.

Unfortunately I glassed up a sheep in a weird position. I hiked over to it and discovered it was dead. The bio came in and hauled it out for a full necropsy, came back as pneumonia and they let me keep the head. That very same day hiking around later I also found some ram horns from a sheep that had died at least a year ago and were laying in the bear grass.

Here’s some pictures, but if my luck holds maybe I’ll be able to get lucky and find that 180 buck.

If you kill a 180+, I'll buy you a beer. mtmuley

I didn't promise anything. I really do wish you guys luck. mtmuley
