Got drawn for a any deer tag up in South Dakota. After months of planning we finally made it up there this week and met with a good buddy who lives near Rapid City. Seen tons of deer every day just had to find them on the right piece of public to make a stalk. On the second evening we find a group of 16 (2 bucks, 14 does). We made our move and got with in 250 yards. Wind was blowing 35 in our face and I shot in the bigger of the 2 bucks. We hunted hard walking over 25 miles in 2.5 days. The pain and cold weather was worth the memories made with good friends! I couldn’t be happier with him as my first mule deer. Big bodied mature 3x3! ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/11/full-37896-323004-cc263570_b386_4b59_82e1_e38ad7172b1e.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/11/full-37896-323005-23809c03_6227_4999_98df_8fd830f16f9b.jpeg)

High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!
