RE: my first deer with new smoke pole
Congrats, nice Doe there and a dandy eater I am sure.
Igot my second deer with a smoke pole the last day of ML season here, it sure is addicting.
I was waiting for a Buck being as I had already shot a nice Doe, but late in the day the only thing I had to choose from were two big yearlings. They both presented themselves in front of me for over 15 mins before I decided to go ahead and take one as I may not get another chance, less than an hour to sunset. They had milled around from about 100 yards out to less than 30 yards when I took the shot. Being a meat hunter I popped him right in the back of the head, he never even twitched a muscle. I was sure onehad knots on his head so I shot the other, turns out he did too.
I really dont like to take button bucks, ya never know what they might be in a few years but I am sure he will be a tasty eater.
Again congrats on your hunting experience!
