Title: Last day buck NE (113)
Post by: mdbuck5x5 on November 19, 2011, 08:34:18 PM: I drilled this fella this morning. I paid the price for him but it was well worth it. Had to drag him out nearly 3/4 of mile in 15" of snow by myself! My best whitetail by far :IBCOOL: so I'm not complaining!

Post by: mdbuck5x5 on November 20, 2011, 01:12:29 PM: Yeah it sure was! On one hand walking through that much snow sucked but on the other hand it sure was nice because he actually was a little easier to drag!

Post by: Moe the Sleaze on November 29, 2011, 09:15:17 PM: Just curious, was this buck crossing behind you and fell just below the lip of a logging road? I happened upon some tracks and a gut pile and I'm trying to figure out what deer went with it. Gut pile was 10 feet down over the side of the road. ????

Title: Re: Last day buck NE (113)
Post by: Moe the Sleaze on November 30, 2011, 01:27:34 PM: Yes, I realize its a needle-in-haystack sort of thing, but I spent that last week alone up in 113 and was onto one particular deer for several days, (I suspected he was a nice one, though I'd never quite caught a glimpse of him, he was a snorter and always JUST on the other side of a fringe of trees usually)....on the last day I was down in a creek bed at the bottom of a big clearcut slope and heard a shot above me. By the time I crossed the creek and slogged up though 15" of snow, all that remained were tracks and blood and a skid trail. The man tracks had been headed up the logging road and then suddenly stopped before even getting into the prime trees and I wondered what the heck, this guy just got tired and gave up his slog. But then when heading down the road I saw where he had shot the deer maybe 50 yds behind him. This was approximately 3/4 of a mile up the gated road, so I was just wondering if this beautiful buck was the one I was chasing. There are not THAT many bucks taken on the last day in 113, so I thought I'd give this a try. One of the wonders of the internet, making it possible to find that "needle in a haystack".

Whether it was the buck I was chasing for several days or not, I congratulate you on a fine animal. And if it IS the buck I was chasing (hint: bridge), then I'm glad someone got him and glad I wasn't just wasting my time.
Thanks everyone!
