last october my grandpa and i went to wyoming muley and antelope hunting. we took a drive the afternoon before opening day to some public land and glassed for a while and i spotted 3 muley bucks standing 250 yards away. one was a 12 inch wide, one 20 inches and one was alot bigger. We went back there opening morning and at first light i spotted a huge buck (especially compared to whitetails where i live, it is hard to see an 18" spread) feeding on a ledge 400 yards away. I was not confident shooting that far so i tried to stalk closer. When i started moving he saw me and looked but didnt run away. When he continued feeding, i walked down the ridge i was on, up onto a huge flat with sagebrush and cactuses. I glassed him as soon as i got to the top and he wasnt looking my direction so i continued the stalk looking to make sure he was still there every 10 - 20 yards. I finally got to about 200 yards away and he was looking straight at me. i got behind some sage, unfolded my bipod and found the buck in my scope... running away[:@]I didnt want to shoot a running deer so all i could do is watch him run around a bend and dissappear. I spent the rest of the morning looking for the buck and heard a shot at about 11 o clock. I went over a ridge and met a guy that stayed at the same hotel as us. He said he shot at a 27 inch wide muley. I knew it was the buck i shot at. He said he missed and it was the biggest muley he has seen in that area of public land in wyoming. I made up for it that afternoon by killing an 11 1/2" antelope at 300 yards but i still think about that buck everyday. Not bad for my first out of state hunting trip. We are planning on going back this year for elk and muleys in the bighorn mountains.
