    Dead deer


    Wish I had an amazing story, but as it stands, he walked up within 35 yards, and I put 180 grains into the boiler room

    Of course he ran downhill through a fresh clear cut, but luckily the loggers were there to help the extrication:

    Was lucky that they were so willing to help.

    It would have been a time getting him up the hill over all those logs and limbs.

    I shot 2 hogs once that were over 350 pounds just up the road was some men with a back hoe that loaded them in my pickup for me.

    I probably could have made it with the farm tractor, but I would have had to take the long way around to get there. We have a bucket on the front to facilitate loading.

    Thanks Ed.

    Been spending all my time now taking the kids out and scouting for the "high-probability" areas, for my girl to put her 410 to use.

    Logging a lot of boot leather miles in the process. Been losing weight. :D

    Seen a few more bucks since, so apparently, killing this one allowed the others to become more "saucy".

    Rut's in full tilt here.


    Did you get his brother?

    Nope, but I got a good meat buck this morning. He was a healthy young buck, 5 x3 with a broken main beam. The brute did not show up today so I shot the one that did. We only get one buck here so now it's doe season!
