SDTroy&RandyCoyotes1988.jpg

Here's apic of Troy and I after a few days of calling - we hit the weather "perfect" that first trip (1988) - when we packed up and headed back to IA, I think we had 11 coyotes either stretched, or on the stretchers . . . I love going through the old pics and reliving the hunts . . . RG...

A pair of called coyotes, taken on my first hunting trip with [now] long-time hunting partner, Troy . . . pretty much the small and large of it . . . 1988 was a pretty good year! :) RG

Here's a pre-BIG MIKE pic - yours truly with a nice Douglas, Wyoming mule-deer ; 1977 . . .

A much younger version of the duffer now using this skin! The rifle was my first .257 Ackley Improved (Roberts), topped off with a Leupold M-8, 6X scope, which sits atop my current (SGR smithed/Nyhus Stocked) .257 Ackley ! ;) The bullet was a 120 Gr. SPEER " HOT CORE ", driven by a case-full...

Here's a pic of The Borden ALPINE actioned .20BR rig, smithed by Mike Bigelow . . .

This is BIG MIKE's latest rifle project (offspring of The RED HAMMER INCIDENT) : Borden ALPINE action, PacNor 1:11" twist SS, Super Match, fit and chambered by Mike Bigelow, bedded in a McMillan Hunter Class stock by yours truly. So far, so good - expected MVs are probably not going to "happen"...

25BR-Brigadier #3032 / 88 Gr. BIB test - 5/08 100 Yd.

This one's for Al! ;) Here are the results of the first "real" attempt at load development for the RimRock actioned, PacNor barreled 25BR, which was stocked by Mike Bigelow and smithed by "Humble Henry" Rivers. Having muddled about only during a registered group tournament (a...

RG's '07 Pronghorn joins the Mule deer herd . . .

Ankeny, IA taxidermist, Brad Coulson, finished his work on my 2007 Antelope , which Donna and I picked up yesterday - this one has a "show quality" cape and mount - though Brad had a couple of BIGGER "goats" ready to go also, this one, despite ," just respectable" horns...

Here's a coyote, called and shot on 2/8/08, while hunting with Mike Bigelow! Thanks for taking me along and giving me the gravy, Mike! :) The rifle is my old Rem. 722, trued by Stan Ware, featuring Stan's one-piece, full-length bolt sleeve. Al Nyhus did the pillar bedding, using a McMillan Hunter...

RG's three best mule deer . . .

The mounts on both the left and right were done by Spokane, WA, taxidermist, Scott Brewer: his work is simply very good. The center mount was done by Ankeny, IA , taxidermist, Brad Coulson; his work is most pleasing also. As viewed from the left, the first two were from NE Wyoming, shot, respectively...

Last pic of BIG MIKE's muzzle-loader buck . . .

We didn't get a lick of work out of HIM - HE left before the field-dressing was completed, mumbling about, "winturen wid Bill Spivens agen" . . . RG

A well pleased BIG MIKE, home for Christmas . . . and now, gone again! ;)

Here, my alter ego, BIG MIKE and i pose with a nice "late season" muzzle-loader white-tail . . . he would'a-could'a-should'a been a 9-point - it appears that, based upon the brow-tine bases, they were only in the 3.5 - 4 inch range. This rack, prior to the breakage would probably...
