Montana last day buck
« on: November 18, 2013, 11:53:04 AM »
Well after getting several suggestion from fellow Hunt-Wa members I planned a three day journey back to Montana.   I talked with Kazekurt and we met up and he showed my brother and I a draw to hunt on day one.

It snowed lightly on our first day and we sat in that draw for a few hours with just four does walking by me at 20 yards.  That afternoon produced similar results but we did catch a glimpse of a whitetail buck.

Day two we decided to hunt high and we hunted high.  Lots of snow and we followed several tracks but never did catch a buck.  We hiked in a gate that was close to the top and finally saw a buck.  He bolted so fast I couldn't even draw on him so ended day two.

We were loading up on our last day and Kazekurt told me I should bring a rifle just in case I couldn't get into bow range so I did.  We started hiking up the mountain right at daylight and just as we reached our glassing spot Kaze spots a deer right behind us.  I put my binos up and saw some spikes and said ok I will take him.  Kaze ranges the buck at 238 yards and I layed prone and hit him with my sons 243.  The buck spins and moves very slowly down the hill.  We watched him bed and we moved closer and I hit him one last time.  It was a awesome trip and one I hope to do again.  Thanks Kaze it was awesome.  First ever rifle kill for me and on our way out we had a massive bighorn sheep cross in front of us.

Great job that will be some good eating venison there!!

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.
