Fiancé's first kill. Blacktail Buck
« on: October 20, 2013, 06:05:14 PM »
Got her first kill today. One shot 100 yards free hand.
He was following close behind a couple does. Glands were wet and he was stinkin'. Still got plenty of time to get mine!

That is a dandy first buck...you should mount it for her.  I can't wait for the day I nail a nice blacktail.  Strong work to the lady.  :tup:

Thanks all, don't know how the pics turned upside down.

But yeah he's 17.5 inches wide and 4x2. There was a .5inch eye guard in his fork side.

Alders and small firs are ripped up everywhere. He still had bark on his bases.

And yes, he's all caped out for a shoulder mount!

Thanks all! She appreciates all the comments!

Deer is all boned out and the head is dropped off at the taxidermist. Now it's my turn to find mine and hopefully one up her ;-)
