Wife's 5x4 Blacktail
« on: November 23, 2009, 03:59:44 PM »
Well, I got skunked this year, but my favorite hunting partner scored on this nice 5x4 Blacktail.  Not much of a story to it.  He walked across a trail in front of us about 75 yards and stopped.  First shot hit too far back, but solid.  He ran straight up a cliff face and turned around to look at us and she hammered him.  He fell right down the chute and broke his skull plate all up and tore the cape around the neck and ears.  Drug him down the the road, gutted him and threw him in the truck.  Not bad for a day we were not going to hunt and just went out on a whim.

Yeah.  It was a pig.  I was kicking myself for letting it be her day to be the shooter!  Never expected to see anything.  Now I have to go out and get her her own rifle as she does not want to share anymore.

Congrats to your wife!  Tell her she may as well not hunt anymore.  She has killed the hardest deer there is to kill.  A MONSTER blacky! 
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.
