I don't know how the heck I've missed these updates. Thanks again for sharing your hunt, Charlie. If I've got to be chained to a desk 40 hours a week, at least I can get away for a few minutes here or there through your stories and photos.

I'm gonna keep the words brief and let the photo's do the talking.

Another great day in paradise. Fixed a flat and looked over some really nice antelope bucks.

Late this afternoon Vance and I slipped off to the lower end of the ranch. In hand were our Shaggy suits and bows and arrows. We were gonna give the suit the acid test.
Here's what we came up with.

Yeah guys, that doe is around 10 yards away and clueless. We were moving on a very nice buck that was just about 40 yards away and had to pick our way past this gal.

For a short while we had it made and then I guess I relaxed too much and scraped some brush. It was all she could stand and blew out of there... taking the buck with.

Snapped this picture of Vance as he walked out. We had a blast today. I'll put up some pics of some really nice bucks that weren't where anyone could get to them.

Charlie,
Mind telling where you got your ghillie?  It is a little lighter in color than the ones I usually see, looks like it would work great in my neck of the woods.  

Love the Stories, keep em coming

Brack.........Our Gillies came from Rancho Safari, Three Rivers also has them.

We have the Deluxe Long Coats W/ hats and masks. They are the 4 season all purpose cammo pattern Jeriflage is the pat. name and they are Ultralite style.

I am totaly sold on these rascals. We chose this pattern because it seemed to fit all areas we hunt in.........thanks for the post

Cool stuff! Now you're getting after 'em!   :thumbsup:  
I'm heading to Montana to chase the prairie speedsters three weeks from tomorrow - you can bet the ghillie will be packed!  Can't believe how close you got to that gal!

Dang boys! Ya'lls my heros! That's some heart thumpin range on the ground and slippin closer  :eek:  ! If I didn't have a family countin on me, I'd quit right now, pack the gear, and head yer way. Course, pickin up a ghillie like that on the way...you've certainly made me a believer in them.

Thank ya'll for including us...anxiously awaiting more.

PS- that camera takes a good picture   :thumbsup:

Joe and Robin... yep! That ole gal would have been toast had we wanted her.
You (I) can't believe how much stuff we got by with in those Shaggy suits.
Most of the time we were moving single file, but other times we were side by side.... and the wind was real "iffy".
Individually we looked like walking house plants. Together we looked like the house plant from hell.    ;)  

Here is a pic of the prize that waited just beyond the doe...
   
   

I should add that these photos were taken with my little Sony camera... no fancy big lense stuff or photo shop. (Ron...   :D   )
