Title: Want to see another buck?
Post by: hunterofelk on October 20, 2008, 12:26:23 PM: Been off the computer for more than a week and hunting-camping out of Winthrop. A lot of posts in the deer hunting forum. Too many to keep up with. I got this buck on Tuesday and up until that day I was not too sure about getting anything. This deer was the fourth deer I saw in four days of hunting. It goes to show a hunter should always keep trying until the season is over. I couldn't pass him up, decent antlers and very fat. I got him about 2 miles from the road and did two trips with 80 lbs of meat. I wish I could have got the deer out and weighed him, because I have been hunting for a 300 pounder for a long time. I can't believe the season is over and a whole 'nother year to wait.

Post by: Guy on October 20, 2008, 06:28:16 PM: Real nice buck! Way to stay with it - I got mine on the 7th day of the season, hunting every day. I didn't see as many deer as usual, but some good size, healthy deer for sure.

You said it when you mentioned that it's over and we have to wait another year... Sheesh... Really ought to be able to hunt more than that. It just doesn't feel right to stop for a year!

Congrats on a real nice one. I may have to start hunting Idaho too, so I can go after a second one!

Regards, Guy
