I found a nice valley, which sloped down to some farm country. Looked like a perfect spot to ambush a buck wandering back up from the fields.

11:45 this guy came out.

He saw me, but I was dressed in white, so he couldn't figure out what I was, and he was upwind of me.

Hit him with one shot, .45/70 350gr Hornady right lung, bullet angled through into his right hip.

The buck took off running hard and I could not get another shot off. But he piled up into the brush. Just buried himself into the Tag Alders.

Had to laugh at that, my wife would have a different opinion...Attended a wedding held at the big hotel at Lake Louise a few years ago, one of the menu items available in the restaurant was a combo plate of venison & wapiti, I commented that I might like that but not for $35 a plate...She never looked up, just commented that "why, it'll be the cheapest wild meat you've ever eaten"...and I do believe she was right.
 
They dive into some hellish places. I heartshot a WT buck one time that during his 50 yard death dash went headlong into a ball of abandoned barbed wire left in a fence corner.Took almost 1/2hr to get him unwrapped and I was bleeding more than he was at the end of it!
