Pending World Record Mule Deer Taken With An Air Rifle In West Texas

“I’m a firm believer that, as hunters, what drives us is the chasing of an indescribable moment of exhilaration and responsibility that becomes frozen in time. It’s why we set forth into the cold, wet, and oftentimes the most miserable situations trying to get closer and push beyond what’s easy,” says Colin.  “On the second morning of our hunt, we knew our only chance was to get closer by working over the top from the large cap rocks and looking down into the canyons that carve through the Guitar Ranch. We knew it would have to be close and potentially fast. After fighting the cold and winds all morning, it wasn’t until the walk back for lunch that the ghost appeared out of nowhere at 113 yards staring right at us. Although not the distance I was hoping for, it was going to be that moment or never. The crosswind died down for a split second giving me a shot opportunity, and the Hammer did the job. It was in that moment where it all came together and I couldn’t be more proud to have made this hunt a success.”
