I think he was on my cam...I had another good year for Whiteys

[sksavenger]

Got home from work at 3 this afternoon and thaught i would go for a hike down to some of the big coulees south of the yard. Spotted this guy in the thick poplar stand in the bottom of a deep coulee (300 feet of rope dont reach bottom) There were seven other bucks and some does that were all coming out of the woods as i waited and after about an hour he come up the hill on the other side putting the run on a younger buck. There was 15 minutes time left and he stopped near the top at about 250 yards. I nailed him one shot and watched him tumble and slide all the way back into the bottom and folded up dead in the creek. Thats how i know the ropes didnt reach. Called up my dad and my buddy and finally we got it out of there and home. And there is a lot of meat to smoke.

You got that right. I think the same when Im eating a good deer rib steak.
It was all worth chasing, after all the pains in the miles walked.....Enjoy....

Good lord thats a big buck!..

 

[sksavenger]

That he was. Thinking back i should have called up fellow Cgn'er Deadmeat, to help pull it out of the coulee

 

[noneck180]

Good job man..Saskers shoot the biggest deer by far

 

[eastwind]

Nice, wide buck, make a good gun rack.

 

[dead meat]

Dead Meat has been there, done that. you should have used a better guide or used the big boom stick to anchor him up top. Maybe get shooting lessons from the girl friend.

 

[sksavenger]

I dont have one anymore to give me lessons. But i should have had the big boomstick with me. But i still think he would have taboggened. I had the best guide i know....me!!

 

[7mmlefty]

Ha ha! you two are funny as hell. You dont need no bea'ches or guides to shoot streight...

 

[dead meat]

Well sks will need help to eat all the meat he plans smoke. He`ll swell up like a poisoned pup if he tries to eat all that deer and moose.
