Default Big Muley and Big help from fellow AO member.

About a year ago I posted a thread asking about what WMU to put me and my wifes muley draws in. I was given lots of good info and then a member offered us permission on 7 sections in some great hunting land. We had never meet till the day we showed up to hunt. He took the time to show us around and give us tons of tips. He came out and hunted hard with us as well. The day we shot my buck we walked 17 km up and down the coulee. No complaints. Just did everything in his power to help us tag out. We ended the hunt with a beauty 180 1/2 bruiser and a new hunting/fishing partner. More importantly a new friend. Just goes to show you that there is still great people in this world. HUGE thanks to Matt for everything you did and we cant wait to do a fishing trip. If i can figure out how to post a pic i will.
