Shooter: Tom Thomas
Thought you might enjoy these picture's. I used a
Shiloh Sharps 50-2 1/2 with a MVA scope. Bull
weighed about 2000 lbs. We got about a 1000 lbs of
meat from it.
Shooter: Jerry Jennings
Jerry got his at 139 yards with a 45-70 Ballard with
MVA vernier sights. Your products performed
flawlessly. Many thanks for providing the Black
Powder Fraternity with excellent products.
We were on the Thousand Hills Buffalo Ranch in
Southern Colorado. The ranch is located 8 miles West
of San Luis and about 30 miles SE of Alamosa Co. A
description taken from their website:
"This is not a
shoot-in-the-corral/pasture type hunt. These are
strictly fair chase hunts on over 62,000 private
acres of prime, native bison habitat in Southern
Colorado. That's about 10 miles square or 100 square
miles. The unfenced western border is the Rio Grande
River, with seemingly endless BLM beyond. The
southern border is Hwy. 142 which has a stock fence.
A barbed wire fence also demarcates the north and
south property lines. This area is covered with
rabbit and sagebrush with numerous arroyos and
large, rocky hills. Blue gramma grass, rabbit and
sagebrush carpet the valley floors. The Sangre de
Cristo Mountain range rises to the east, while the
14,345-ft. peak named Mt. Blanca stands majestically
to the north. The scenery is absolutely breath
taking! Sightings of mule deer, antelope and wild
horses are commonplace, yet these encounters never
cease to thrill me".
