My 12 year old daughter's first deer, taken 9:30 Sunday morning (October 14) on public land in S.E. Washington. The shot was 120 yards with her Savage Axis in 7mm-08, 120 grain Barnes ttsx bullets.





Congrats to the lady huntress, that’s a great first buck.👍

Nice mentoring pops. 😉

Sorry, not a blacktail. But we got it done opening day. We didn't see any other bucks and didn't see any in trucks. Only 9 at the butcher. Just sad. This guy was big bodied and had 5 does with him. He was definitely starting to rut. He's a 4x4 plus eye guards.

Thanks! We're already making plans for next year's hunt.

We took the head to Black River Taxidermy for a European mount. She wants to hang it in her bedroom. 👍

After helping others chase deer all week, finally got a chance to hunt alone on the last day of muzzy.  Got this guy on the far side of the "hell hole" and needed to call in help for the packout...can't thank my little brother enough!  Congrats to all the filled tags so far this season!!

Nice one kellama! Going on a solo hunt myself in Curlew this weekend. Nice to be out there with your own thoughts.

Good grief, Kellama, didn't you kill one on the last day last year as well?

Congrats on a dandy!

Little Pathfinder scored on opening morning.  Stalked and killed at 255 yards.  Happy kid, proud dad.   :tup:

I killed a 3 pt meat buck.  Would have liked to hold out of something bigger or older, but I had trail cams hung all summer and never got a single mature deer on one.  All young 2 and 3 pts.  I think we may have an age-class gap out there due to the winter of '16 (?).
