Velvet Muzzleloader Muley

[Tom007]

Awesome job Tom, congratulations again, I was hoping you would post up story! I hope your getting him mounted!?! Special hunt with your brother and velvet is in great shape!

Thanks Jeff. I spotted him at around 7:30 ish,  slow stalk and got my shot at just around 10 am. I tried to make him stand at 55 yards. It's open sights, so I felt he was at a good range. Bedded facing away from me, wind blowing in his face. I was down wind behind him, perfect wind. When he wouldn't stand at 55, I crept in closer when he finally stood facing away from me. He turned very slightly giving me a shoulder shot. I was lucky enough to place a real good shot. Having him mounted in Colorado, they are good with velvet and Muley's. I dropped it off the afternoon I got him so they could get it frozen. Looking forward to getting it back....be safe, thank you.

Congrats on a nice Muley. Glad you and your brother had loads of fun and made some great memories.  I had planned a few years back for a Mule deer hunt in Colorado and now my hunting partner is 80 and said he would not go with me.  I have 18 points for Mule Deer.  Looks like a ton of fun.

Thank you, hope you get a chance to hunt them. It was a great experience, one I'll never forget.....

Awesome buck! What powder and bullet were you using? I e been curious about Colorado but know they don't allow sabots like I'm currently shooting

Hello. I used Triple 7 powder (no Pelletized powder allowed) with a 295 grain Hollowpoint Power belt. Colorado rules, open sites no scopes. I have good groups with 100 grains of powder. Hope this helps....thx
