Zambiahttp://I went with a coworker and his boy this morning for his late tag. He drew a tag with only 1 point and has never shot a buck, he was in for a surprise! We saw a few good bucks and one buck he tried to shoot, a nice 165 class buck with split g2's, but it did not work out. I told him the season is early and there will be more bucks to chase and more there was. I spotted this buck beaded down around 1500 yards down in a big hole and the stalk was on. One look the buck tghrue the spotter and he was all over it. We cut it down to 375 yards and there was no getting closer to this deer he was bedded perfect surounded by does. One shot the deer never moved out of his bed, it was such a sweet moment!  After 2 hours deboning and cleaning and a mile hike out he is one happy kid and we were both tired of packing that beast out, he had his  first WA buck and it will be hard to beat. I rough scored it when they were making a trip to get pack frames and came up with around 178-181" frame with 13" of extra he will gross around 190's.
I hope you enjoy the pics, I was very impressed with this kids ability to shoot long range!

I think he had 1 happy dad with that shot and his buck he held his composure pretty darn good. I was glad to help them out on a fun but short hunt!

My score is probably off but swell I am not a good score guy  I still think it will gross in the upper180 sumewere
