Jeez, GREAT first buck!

His hunting career just peaked.  He should probably quit while on this high point.   :chuckle:

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!  .

Sounds like Adam might be in for an @$$-whoopin' next time the shot glasses get broken out at deer camp... :chuckle:

Seriously, congrats Adam!!  GREAT BUCK!

That's a bruiser right there, congrats Adam.

I don't know the brand of the bike trailer, we got it at REI.  It works really well, not a deer cart specifically but works just fine for one.  We found two containers that we can strap down on it and just load those containers up.

Hunting pressure is great once you camp behind the gate.  I never saw a single hunter either weekend that was not from our camp.  Can't beat that! 

The buck was definitely starting to rut.  We did see one more about the same size but never got a shot at him.

Ya, I was back there a little longer than Shane, was there 6 days total, saw 3 hunters the entire time, and that was only when I hiked way down lower.  It was a fun time up there, if only I would have got a shot at that other buck!   :'(

This is a Burley trailer, we did not get it at REI because they did not carry this particular trailer at that time. Purchased at a bike store in down town Bellingham, had to order.
