Epic deer hunt 2020
« on: October 19, 2020, 08:08:16 AM »
My son in law and I have permission on some private ground down on the Palouse River and we struck gold. Day one we saw 7 bucks 4 shooters, we sat on a huge bedded 4x4 waiting until dark for him to stand but he never did. Sunday we found 4 shooter bucks all bedded within 100 yards of each other. My son in law was able to take his with a 25-06 at 311 yards and mine was 275 with my .260. Now, these deer were actually bedded approximately 10 yards from one another but for my Son in law to get a good view of the vitals he had to take the shot from a different angle that's why his shot was much further. The plan was for him to take his in the bed and when mine got up hopefully he'd present a shot. He shoots and flops the deer and mine just stayed bedded sort of looking around wondering wth was that noise so I shot. The elapsed time was maybe 10 seconds. I've hunted this property my whole life and never had a weekend like this before. Just an epic hunt, one that will be hard to duplicate. Mine was a 4x5 with a natural hole in the right side beam. His is a 5x6 with a split brow on one side and a sticker at the base of the other brow but look at the color!! What an awesome deer!! Posted a couple different pics of each just so you can get a feel for the body mass of these Palouse river whiteys. They are just huge.

Those bucks are pigs. Nice job dropping those whoppers. That natural hole in the antler is pretty cool.
