Congratulations

Congrats on the nice doe! Always love your stories...

Mighty fine lookin' deer steaks ya got there, Congratulations!

Thanks much guys.

I will Sabotloader. I've got some wound and bullet pictures and a rather poor video of the shot. I'll put them in a separate post.

We had a small but growing population for the last three years Bronko, but they have disappeared this year. We've seen absolutely no sign for the last few months. Everyone is blaming the drought we had from July through mid-November.


Well, it pretty close Breechplug. Our club rules allow two does per man and bucks five points or better. But none of our nine guys shoot young 5 or 6 pointers (but a 6 pointer that's clearly three years or older will go down). Then, any member who hasn't taken a buck by the last ten days of the season may take a 3rd. doe instead. So everyone is pretty much guaranteed three deer (normally).

Our season has been HORRIBLE this year. I had to work hard for this doe and only two other members have taken their second one. Normally I can pick and choose when to shoot a doe. Not this year. This one was the only deer I've seen over the last three weekends. So now I have my two does. If I don't get a buck in the next two weekends, which seems unlikely at this point, I'll be looking for a third doe starting January 20th.

Way to go Semi.... Great story, congrats.

Cool story. I sure wish I still had my TC 54 cal Renegade.

congratulations on a nice looking doe. She should be excellent eating.

Way to Go SEMI ! That doe looks part albino in the picture.Is that white hair or just dew on her fur? I know it is not frost.

Neither dew nor frost Woody. Just a normal colored fat doe - very healthy. Her glossy coat reflected the camera flash a little.

Congrats on a fine doe. Great story also.
