There are 44 species/subspecies of big game in North America. A friend just got his 44th species, a red Brocket deer in Mexico. To be honest I wasn’t familiar with this species and had to Google it. Turns out it is closely related to moose Some of the species are unavailable to hunt now.

Do they have anything like this for fish? I can only think of a couple fresh water fish still on my list to catch.

It used to be 4 in a year. I've done it probably the last 12-15 years. I've never applied for it. It's all honor based.

Might be 4 then. This was back around 13 or 14.

Jeff has a fantastic trophy room with trophies from around the world. He has a mountain in it with his sheep. Many of his NA trophies are Booners but the one thing he is struggling with is a Booner whitetail. He has several that are close. He owns land in south east Ohio that he intensively manages and hunts Saskatchewan every year so he’s doing everything to make it happen.

Bet he has some killer hunting stories! Just to get the sheep on that list is a lifetime accomplishment let alone everything else.

I got to see Jeff on Saturday. I asked how they hunted. It’s thick jungle and you sit in a hammock 30-35 feet in the air. They used shotguns loaded with bbs. The deer eat a particular white flower and they wander around browsing in those flowers.

Copy, another damn saddle hunter

I asked if it was a saddle and he said it wasn’t. It was a hammock type of contraption strung between 2 trees. He said as the wind blew the trees the seat would go up and down a good bit.
