Title: Three hunters, five mulies
Post by: Guy on November 08, 2009, 04:12:04 PM: We're feeling pretty good about the season, despite taking no monster bucks.

My teenage son made a great stalk and shot a doe yesterday:

I took a small buck and a doe. Proud of the stalk on the young Washington buck, closed from a half mile to 175 yards for the shot:

Taking the 390 - 400 yard shot in Wyoming:

My hunting buddy packing out one of his two bucks:

All do-it-yourself hunts on public land in Washington and Wyoming. Lots of good time afield with my son and with a good friend. Many miles of off-trail hiking, lots of rough country covered, lots of time glassing. Boned out/packed out two deer. Quartered one and packed it out. The other two were simpler, a drag to the truck. Thoroughly enjoyed our time afield and hunting together!

Title: Re: Three hunters, five mulies
Post by: Guy on November 08, 2009, 08:52:28 PM: Carpsniper - sorry for the confusion. Shot the buck here in Washington in the general season. Went to Wyoming with high hopes, but ended up taking a doe there.

My buddy took a buck here, and a buck in Wyoming.

My son took a doe here.

Cleared it up? :)
