What's the story with that one? Seriously... I want to hear how that went down!

Weird. Congrats I think?

I think that one just fell out of that tree.  I hope he's OK...

I think the buck is taking a nap. Looks like he had one too many fermented apples

Looks to be a dandy BT. Is there any other pictures up closer of this downed buck? Would like to see a better picture of him.

That's the only good pic I have. He was a 3x4. 627 area, private property. Not city hunting, but the apples help.

Here are a few more that I didn't get to shoot. Enjoy!

I did pretty well hunting this year; limited out on doves, did very well on my quail/partridge hunt, and got my deer. The only unsuccessful trip was my elk hunt and that was cut short.


I found my buck bedded with three other bucks in a steep draw in the afternoon, and he was the only legal one. After spotting the group it took me and my hunting partner what felt like an eternity to look through them and convince ourselves that he was good for the taking. After a short stalk I started to get settled and the group became uneasy. They got up and started to walk up to go over the ridge. He was quartering up and away from me so I put the cross hairs on his shoulder, plus the correction for him walking up and away from me, and pulled the trigger. As my gun recoiled up I saw legs go sky high in my scope, I racked another round, got back on target for a follow up shot and he was sliding down into washout in the center of the draw kicking furiously. About 2 seconds later he came to a stop dead as a doornail. The shot went through his shoulder, ribcage, and out through the neck, perfectly stopping at the hide. The only blood shot meat was in the neck. I couldn’t have asked for a better hit.

His rack isn’t going to set any records, but he is a big boy being over 200lbs. Lots of tasty meat.

2012 3 point buck.  day 6 of hiking our butts off and one finally made the mistake of laying down with some does while I was watching him.  Woke him up from from his nap after stalking in to about 75 yards.
