Had a great time this week at the lease. Took a week off work and headed west. It's was perfect hunting weather. Cold, rainy, and wind blowing 20-30mph. Deer were moving like we had never seen. Had to take a buck I didn't want to, but he could hardly walk. Once I got up to him his foot was awoke as big as a baseball. All the pictures were took through my binoculars with iPhone so not that great. Ready for next year now that I'm just a bystander and picture taker for my wife to shoot



Couple of does taking a rest from the young bucks chasing

Nothing wrong with that at all! Sometimes burning a tag is the right thing to do. Good character on the deer as well as yourself.

To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

Great job, headed out Thursday.

Thanks everyone. I had one particular buck I had been waiting on all season, passing on some very good ones also to get him. But when guys guy limped out I had to make the choice.
