In 1991 Arizona auctioned two statewide antelope tags. Art Dubs bought his second one in as many years while a newcomer out of Reno, NV named Sam Jaksick Jr. purchased the other tag. Combined, both tags brought in $8,100 in revenue.
Both auction tag holders hired my dad, Tony Grimmett! To my knowledge never has this happened since this time where two different statewide auction tag buyers hired the same guide. (Since the inception of the Super Raffle in 2006 it has happened twice) Art took his buck on the lonely and desolate Plateau once again. His buck finished at 87 1/8 SCI and 86 4/8 B&C. Sam took his buck right before dark in 18A and won the award in Arizona for biggest buck for the year. Sam also won the B&C award for largest buck taken during the 3 year period between 1989 and 1991 at B&C's 21st Awards Banquet. Sam's buck scored 93 SCI, and 92 6/8 B&C.
