That's why I'd shoot one so there's more room for a mule deer in this world  :chuckle:

Today, I did not see the movement of the last couple days, but then again, I ended my day a bit early.  I think the deer moved a lot during the snowstorm last night, as shown by an impressive amount of criss-crossing tracks across the landscape.  I got into a tree stand in a cedar grove at 10:40 AM, and this nice 2.5 year old buck came by at 11:00 AM.  He was cruising and neck stretching, testing the breeze for any scent of a doe.  It was my last full day to hunt, so I went ahead and brought him home.

Thanks Rutnbuxnbulls!

Haha!  Indeed.  I put that sprig of Douglas-fir in his mouth- old European hunting tradition of "The Last Bite" to honor the animal.
