2016 Late Whitetail

Post by morrows1 » Tue Nov 22, 2016 2:13 pm

Well I tagged out for my deer (no elk this year) on the 18th at 230pm. A long season for me this year. Put in a lot of hiking with not much animal movement to go with it. Also had a few opportunities that i just plainly missed the opportunity. Could have attempted a 700 yard shot on one deer but decided not to do that for ethical reasons on myself.

But got this guy sitting in a blind for 3 hrs and chasing him all of the late season in 124. Got him just behind and below the shoulder, he ran about 75 feet and landed in the trees as one of the pictures shows. Sending a tooth in for aging and haven't weighed him as of yet.
