Well, I think I have thawed out just enough to write this! Headed out Saturday morning 12/7/13 in-24 temps and was in no hurry to leave the warmth of my truck. Did a lot of glassing from the seat with the heater blasting. Saw lots of does on all 3 of the properties I can hunt. Saw only 1 small buck, so decided to hit the last piece i hadnt checked. I stopped at the gate to open it, stepped out of the truck and 70 yds away stood a nice shooter! Jumped in truck and sped up the hill and out of sight. I geared up as fast as I could and began searching for the buck. I crept to the top of the hill, and there were 3 shooters at 45 yrds. Glassed the bigger one and saw a sticker on his left rack! I nocked an arrow, stood and let her rip! I saw the arrow hit high, and he dropped in his tracks! SPINE SHOT! I have seen that kind of hit only a couple times on tv shows, so I let him have about 10 minutes, and then the work began! This was the coldest hunt I have ever had, and it took several warm ups before I could load him in the truck! Dont have very good pics due to cold, selfies aint easy at-20 ! When I got home and the family was so happy, and my wife grabbed a few more pics for me also.

Thanks guys ! Biggest mulie thus far out here. Never did see the big 8x5 from last year that was on one of the ranches. I think someone snipped him.

Congrats! I was over there a couple years ago in ND for a mule deer hunt. Temps were about the same but we didn't have the luck. Got very close a couple of times but couldn't quite close the deal.

dang and i went huntn saturday to try and call in a cat and it was 8 degrees and i thought that was cold, yess you can call me a puss now

nice buck and with a bow. when its that cold over there how long does it takes before your skin will stick to your rifle barrel. i know you hunt with a bow but i am sure you have been out with a rifle in that kind of weather? are the deer there real fat, like a real thick fat layer? congrats again

Impressive

NWTFhunter · « **Reply #23 on:** December 12, 2013, 06:35:12 PM »

Bone........... I am now in the club !
MLB, yes, 2 for 2 now.
MKJ, We live in Williston, and I hunt south of there in the area of Alexander which is in the grass lands and the beginning of the badlands.
jackmaster, It was so cold you could freeze a buck in a matter of an hour.

Actually, once I saw him, I completely forgot about how cold it was. Now the gutting part is a whole different story !
bearhunter, I might know an area you can connect

But, the timing has to be right and hit the rut.

And thanks to all the rest of you for your kind words. I love mulie hunting over here ~
