Hey guys I figured my good luck would have ended but it turns out Thanksgiving morning was very giving to me. I never shot a deer with my muzzleloader and I have had it for probably close to 10 years now, well I no more than sat down and this guy ran down the hill, crossed a small slough and stopped broadside in the grassy river bottom. His vitals were directly behind a tree so all I had was a neck shot. I figured why not try it. I had my 30-06 with just in case I missed. I shot and after the smoke cleared he laid there.
I think the last time I got this excited was my first year of hunting, I was 12 and I can still remember my leg shaking uncontrolably while I tried to harvest those first deer. This is my 23rd year and that was cool to get that feeling back again.
