I finished my Muzzleloader deer hunt in Northern Utah by the evening of the second day. I took a nice fat little four point (my first four point buck) with a 260 Nosler Partition and 90 grains of Pyrodex RS. I shot him at about 50 yards with an offhand shot.
I was able to stillhunt right into his dining room where he and several does were feeding without any knowledge that this "stealthy" hunter was there. I was really happy to beat him at his own game by watching the wind and going very slowly and quiet.
My brother took his first deer too. He shot a fat two point on opening day.
Now I have to get ready for hunting during a late season elk hunt for a skin head. I hope that by the end of December I have a years supply of meat in the freezer.
I will hopefully have some pictures to post soon. I will try when I have them. Thanks! FH
