2020 Montana season

[sneakypete]

The 2020 Montana season started off with a lot of snow in central Montana. I glassed bigger bulls in areas very difficult to access after the shot especially with snow. I found this bull at 812 yards and stalked to 216 yards for the shot. I was lucky enough to have my oldest son Greg with me and three other great friends to help with the pack out. Now on to my deer tag, I found him almost 700 yards and stalked to 200 yards. Again I was lucky to have my son there to share in the hunt and pack out.

Did you shoot the deer in the eye or what happened there

I'm not sure what is going on in MT, but I'll bet that is about the 20th rifle killed velvet buck I've seen posted this year.

I was thinking the same thing.

Wow, love the velvet buck and very nice bull.

I’ve seen quite a few still sporting velvet and two bucks that looked like they shed already??? I was thinking the extreme cold that came in shocked their systems enough to do it? I’m no expert just speculation. Congrats on the success.

I’ve heard of a couple shed out bucks as well. Seen the sheds of one. No clue 2020 I guess.
