I think he is still doing his thing.  He just texted me about 45 min ago.  I am sure he will post them up when he gets back.

He and his pops both tagged out on some solid deer. He's in the middle of his mile pack out right now. He got some good quality pictures in the field. Congrats again!

Me too! Ribka is a great guy. I'd love to hunt with him someday. Glad they all are having a fun time.

Ribka got a 4x4(haven't seen the pics), Vandemans dad shot a really nice 3 pint with a huge body and I am awaiting the vandeman to send me pics.  I heckled him a bit on my last text which is why there may be a delay in my pics coming. :chuckle:

Im starting to get a bit jealous.  Everyone I know is getting animals this year. I can't seem to kick this black cloud that is following me around.

From the pics it looks like a nice 4x3, not quite as wide as his dad's. Said it was an amazing stalk that ended in s shot within how range.

What a stud buck.
Thanks for sharing!!

He's still working, cleaning up and packing. Hopefully there will be a short story and a few pics when he gets to a computer.

The only story is going to come from Adam.

If I know tom, he probably sat there staring at a bunch of deer and after 2 hours, he said, I guess I will shoot that one....
