During the 2011 Arizona Strip13B hunt I had the great pleasure of hunting with with John Holbrook of Yuma Arizona. After 7 days of pounding the country we finally caught up with the buck we were after. John made a stellar 360 yard downhill shot in a tense situation to take this unreal buck. After a addition error was corrected on the score sheet the deer gross scores 239 6/8ths" with a 221 frame. His left G4 was only 4.4" and had he matched side to side he would have grossed right at 260" as a 5x5 with only one inch of eyeguard. He was aptly nicknamed "
I can't thank John enough for trusting us with his tag and making a memory that will be burned into my mind forever. Enjoy....
Well here is the second giant that we killed on the Strip this year. He was dubbed "One Eye" cause..well...he only had one eye! We started the hunt looking for him and found him rutting a couple of does on the morning of day two after a short tracking job. One shot at 165 yards was all it took to harvest the great old deer. His heavy antlers grossed 230" on the button with about 3 inches broken off. 34 wide 9x8. A special thanks to our entire crew. If not for each and every one of them our season would not have been so great. Thanks to Bryon,Devin, Bill, Benny, Bob, Luke and Dan! .........................Matt
