He never came closer than 250 yards, so I didn’t get great pics. He’s a beast MF 8 with a couple nice kickers. We have never seen him before tonight. I just ran up to the ranch to do some chores and jumped in a blind late with nothing but my binocs. I put a cam out after the hunt. Hopefully he sticks around a while...

If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.
Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.

That's the stuff that keeps you going out! (And wanting to take a rifle everywhere. )

I left my ammo on the table once. Good luck! Great deer.

Nice buck - I can't say that I've ever gone to a blind without a gun though. If a hog happens by, I always want to be prepared to shoot em.

very nice deer for sure ... but why would you not take a rifle to the stand???
Last weekend I lost my prescription sunglasses somewhere between shooting a doe, loading her in the RTV, driving back to camp, field dressing, hauling gut bucket to bone yard, parking RTV back at camp ... that was when I realized they were misplaced ... I got the tag filled out and on her in the shed (MLD3), grabbed my rifle and back into the RTV to retrace where all I had been. It was dark by the time I got back to camp and no, I did not find my glasses.
Even during the off season, I have a rifle handy, even on my tractor for that matter when shredding/plowing. I'm not trying to be an arse or judging, I just wonder why ...

I would be hopping on one leg all the way back to camp, because my foot would be lost so far up my azz from the kicking I gave myself
