Well I have over 60 hours of comp time so I figured I'd burn a day yesterday and go deer hunting. I went to my normal area, but instead of going up the mt I usually do I went up the far mt. I had seen a few bucks in this area while hunting so I figured I'd run into one. I told my wife when I left that I was going to fill the freezer with the first buck I saw (duck hunting opens Monday). Well that's what I did, and of course while I was working my way down to this guy I jumped a bigger one. Oh well, he wasn't that much bigger so it wasn't that big of a deal. Made a pretty nice 300 yard shot on him though, figured I'd stretch the barrel on the 300 wsm to see what it could do. He went about 50 yards and I didn't ruin a bit of meat on him other than a couple ribs. The pics don't show it but we had gusts to 50mph, pretty windy. I'd also climbed a mt and drug a deer straight uphill 50 yards to get him out of the alders before these pictures were taken. I still have 2 tags for off the roadsystem so hopefully I'll nail a big one over on Raspberry or Afognak later this fall.
Like I said, it was a meat hunt
My hunting buddy got a little warm too.
The timer died on my camera so the only pictures I have of me are holding the camera out as far as I could and smiling like an idiot.
