Got my deer...seasons over!
 

With the elk last weekend and the muley yesterday morning and having not drawn an antelope tag, it looks like my bow season is over for 2004 (less the occasional coyote). This guy was with about 8 other young bucks. I watched him head up a draw and moved ahead to intercept. Well my intercept was almost too good! It was one of those "sneak, sneak, sneak...oh crap!!" I was right in the middle of them!! Actually right ahead and in the middle. They busted out and this deer bolted to the opposite side of the ravine at about 50 yards. He was actually looking the other way and I felt comfortable with the shot so I took it. Couldn't have drawn an X any better. Both lungs and the top of his heart. He went about forty yards and reared over backwards. It was over.

Total track job for the year=70 yards and I watched both expire. Now that is how I like to follow blood trails!!!

What a great season!

Congrats CG, that's a nice muley and one hell of an elk......it's a shame you didn't get on a team for the bowhunting contest, you'd have first entry with your mule deer.....regardless that's one hell of a season and thanks for sharing the pictures with your friend here. Nice Job.....

RE: Got my deer...seasons over!
 

Most guys will hunt a lifetime and not get two animals like that, let alone two different species.

Congratulations! Way to go. :)

I guess it's time to get an out of state license in another state. Congrads.

RE: Got my deer...seasons over!
 

Great job CG! You got a two fine animals there. Too bad you did not draw a antelope tag.
I had a 4x4 muley @ 40-yards today, the shot just did not feel right so I passed. I had a elk @ 30-yards today also but the vitals were blocked. I did kill an antelope doe on Friday afternoon.
