Here are some more pics from deer hunt 09 showing the creek running through the tent, the weather in general, and a couple camp photos. My brother shot another 3pt but he took off before I could get a pic of it.

Post by: 50CalJim on October 25, 2009, 08:06:53 PM: Well crap I forgot to longarm it oh well. Well I guess story starts with a 3:30 alarm going off & getting my rearend over the Cascade pass & into my Pearrygin honey hole right at daybreak. Any way I start to climb up this steep ass rock face for about 600 yds but had to divert down & around to get by a rock wall and I look up & theirs two 3 pts looking at me from about 50 yds. Even at that short of a distance it was a ackward shot because it was 75 degrees uphill with the Deer facing me at about a 30 degree angle with some sun glare. But took my time & made a good shot & then here it came rolling like a log right by me & on down the hill it went. Packed him up & back over the pass I went & got home at 6:pm very tired. Game check aged him at 7 yrs old & yes Heavy Hauler The guards are bladed. kinda unique looking in person.
