I have hunted the Palouse area for going on 20 years. I have shot quite a few Whitetail bucks over the years and some pretty nice ones. I have shot both Whitetail and Mule does as well. But this year I ended up with a Mule buck. It is not a huge rack but I was more than happy. My dad and I were hunting a new piece of land that we were allowed to hunt. We saw a few does the day before and decided to give it a try on the second morning. Dad headed up the hill and I worked the bottom. At about 7 a.m. I heard a shot from up the hill. I pulled my gloves off and waited. The buck came right down the hill toward me and I let him have it at about 50 yards. Got him in the motor room and he only went about 25 yards and piled up. Only a hundred yard drag to the road and in the truck back to camp we went.. Now to find an elk...
