Cousin's first deer ever - Winthrop
« on: October 28, 2009, 07:55:17 AM »
Well, my family has been hunting the same spot in Winthrop for close to 20 years now.  This year we decided to invite our cousin along with us for second weekend of season.  All of us got up early and hiked to our spots to look for deer.  Adam didn't know the area well so we had him walk out the main road from camp (we were camped in behind a locked gate).  About 8 in the morning he spotted this buck below the road at about 200 yards and shot him.  He is a 5x4 with an eyeguard on the 5 point side.  He is close to, if not the biggest buck we have seen in our spot and Adam went and shot him on his second day of hunting there.  He is a great buck!  The last picture is showing how we get camp and our deer out.  It works really well.

 Very nice deer. I would be very interested in one of those game carts you have attached to your bike in the photo?

Great buck Shane.  Congrat s to Adam.   Why is it that all the new guys shoot the big ones???  Very exciting for them yet frustrating for the rest of us.  A lot of hunting is being in the right place at the right time.  Thanks for posting

Looks like a Burley bike trailer stripped down. I had one until my 16 yr old decide to take it off jumps  with his mtn bike and broke the plastic attachment bracket.  :bash:

WOW! Nice buck, tell Adam congratulations. How's the hunting pressure when you're biked in a couple of miles behind a locked gate?
