Busy day!
« on: October 12, 2014, 08:13:37 PM »
This morning started off well for my boy. We stalked a group of mule deer does, and he was able to pluck one from the herd to fill his 2nd deer tag. We walked back to the house to get our truck. On the way back we seen more deer, so we stopped to glass them. I determined  there was one legal buck in the group. Kinda a far shot for him (ranged at 225 yards), but he said he felt confident he could make the shot, and he wanted that buck. He missed the first shot, but reloaded quickly, and dropped him with his second round. He was so exited! This is his first buck.

And to top it off... today is my birthday, and I couldn't think of a better way to spend it.
