Had a pretty good season. Used a new to me saddle for several hunts, saw two nice bucks but had no shot on them, both from the same tree, one morning one night. I really like to still hunt on the ground or sit on a padded stool in one spot. The Friday before Halloween with the monsoon washed me out and I missed the next day which was a good one. I was down to late season and on the second day found this big girl, as big as some bucks. I am all about meat so I have no problem taking a doe when bucks are not around. I hunt on private land on Vashon Island and that usually makes it a bit nicer, but its still no easy thing as Blacktail's are not called ghosts for nothing...

The first picture is super deceiving. Looks like a good buck, then the second picture shows exactly how great of a buck it is! Congrats
