You're right Shane, they have had a few whoppers come out of those hills, several record setters. I've gotten close to one of those bad boys, when I was very young...probably 14 or so. I remember counting 16 full points on him, but was so damn scared I couldn't draw on him since I was on the groud at eye level!!! You know how kids are, that thing might as well been 7 x 7 bull elk as big as he looked to my little punk butt!

I may actually be heading to Indianola this year for shotgun season, my buddy who lives there has taken two VERY nice bucks the last couple years. Granted I think they do the 'small town push' with 30 fellas and about 5 posting at the other end!

Good to hear back from ya...any luck in the desert?
