3nails jr.s' opening day high blacktail
« on: October 16, 2011, 01:59:32 PM »
 What a great day to hunt the high country! Clear, cold, fresh snow on the ground. Hiked for 3 hours in the dark gaining 4,000'. Side-hilled 3/4 of a mile or so to a spot I've had success in the past. Right away we spotted this 3 pt and after a short stalk my son was able to make the shot at 120 yards. It took us 4 hours to pack the boned-out buck back to the truck. This will be the last "little" buck I'll let him shoot that far in. At 13 yrs old it is great watching his mental toughness developing with such a physically demanding hunt. All glory to God for creating such a beautiful day and hunt with my son.

Looks like a gorgeous day and equally as fantastic buck! Congrats to you both!
I am not opposed to golf, for I suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering deer.
