Black Hills deer for the MT guy

[mtmiller]

I haven't hunted the Hills in more than 15 years, but drew this year and gave it a shot. Spent most of my vacation chasing the prairie deer, but couldn't find one I really wanted to take home. That season ended Sunday, so I have been chasing Hills deer since. I have seen quite a few bucks, but only one that was a damn nice one. I missed, too many damn trees in this country.

Anyway, went out today and put on some miles. I wasn't able to get a good look at this guy as he was moving though the trees, but he looked good enough for me.

Not a monster by any stretch of the imagination, but it was a fun hunt and I got some exercise (bastage was in quite a hole).:BLEEP:

These guys are just the right size for hauling out in a single load. Wasn't too bad of a hike (except the first 300 yards) and only took about 45 minutes.

Guess I am done for the year unless I can find a few birds when I get back north. I know Axl is sick of the deer hunting.

Real nice buck and a great picture! Congratulations.

Nice buck Miller. Seeing all these dead whitetails on here this year makes me a little jealous.

Nice buck and photograph! But why is it in most of the pictures with dead deer you look like you've dug a hole behind the animal to sit in? Where the hell are your legs? Not that I want to see your legs... just want to know if you really dig a hole.. Elkcheese may have taught you this technique.

 

[mtmiller]

Naw, no hole dug. I think this was the only shot that doesn't have my knees sticking up. I am not sure where they are in this shot. Fugg, when a guy is only 4 foot tall, it is easy to hide the legs.

I never have used that 'chsr helpful hint, but if you see me with yellow in my beard, I was just thirsty.

Is this better?

Nice buck, and really great field photos. You had another great season.

Good job MtMiller! Way to stick with it. I hear those Whitetails tastes better then our Muleys?

Way to connect again miller...another nice pic to boot! Don't be putting in for any of greeny's hog tags....those are OTC hunts you can live without!

Nice buck, I love the black hills. I turkey hunted there a couple times and always saw a lot of deer and a few elk. If I move back south I'll have to put in for that hunt.

 

[The Hedgehog]

Admit it Miller, you're trying to hide your pink sock.

 

[TheTone]

Thats a new one for me Greeny. Is that a term you regulary have to use?
