Late Season WT Doe
« on: November 30, 2008, 09:38:11 AM »
I was fortunate to harvest a healthy WT doe with my muzzleloader over the Thanksgiving holiday.  I found a guy that lives fairly close to my in-laws North of Spokane that has WDFW damage control doe tags so I could squeeze a little late season hunting in with the family trip for the holiday.  I had decided this was a good alfalfa fed meat opportunity and I was going to take the first good sized doe I could.  As this one came into a safe shooting lane at dusk I sent a 0.530" round ball through her.  My non-hunting in-laws were very supportive and helpful, father in law lent me his pickup for the day, and they let me hang her in their backyard gazebo to skin and cool, father in law took pictures, etc.  Now I can focus my late hunt time on archery elk.  Sorry there are no field pics, my battery was uncooperative in the cold weather and I didn't want to wait.

Good job!  Chalk up one for the round ballers.

You got a complete pass through?

Yes, I got a pass through.  Big hole all the way through.  100gr Goex FF at about 30 yards.  I would like to see what the ball looks like now but it's long gone.
