Title: Snake River Breaks earned a one the hard way.
Post by: Slayock on February 10, 2009, 08:10:54 PM: I shot this guy in the bottom of a draw just bellow Lower Granite Dam. I just came over the ridge as he walked out of the brush. He was 200 yards away almost strait down hill. I had to stand on the edge of a cliff to get a shot. The entry hole went strait through his back and came out his belly just behind the front legs.

Post by: buckmaster_wa on February 10, 2009, 10:06:52 PM: I hunt the snake river breaks also. Thats a nice buck. You have to get into the steep stuff to get away from the guys who run all over on the quads :bash:.
