Well I have been at it all week trying to get on a legal buck. I finally had a good wind to hunt a particular area. I packed up the fanny pack, knight bighorn and the tripod sticks. I walked in next to an area I have hunted before. I have been scouting this area all week and saw 0 deer. Knowing the area and where the deer liked to bed in years past, I approached with the wind in my face. I worked my way through the cover creepy peaking around, I come over a rocky area and right below me I spot this buck preening himself. I see he is legal and drop back out of site. I drop my shooting sticks and prepare for shot, safetys off, come up to a knee and putit right behind shoulder. At the shot the smoke filled the air and couldn't see where exactly I hit. His right front leg was broke as he ran a short ways. I reloaded and finally was able to get another one in him. I went back and got my meat cart and got him out. I am excited this was my first muzzleloader buck and hopefully not my last. I have a few buds still in camp and we will be hunting all weekend. I will try and post a few more pics.

Little nuts (peanut M&M size)..I talked to a bio and he said might be EHD (Epizootic Hemmoraghic disease) (Blue-tongue related)..rare in Mule Deer but causes bucks to keep velvet. The velvet seems dried up on the horns not spongy.
