Fun South Dakota Black Hills Hunt

[tzone]

Headed to the Black Hills last Thursday for a fun hunt that I look forward to whenever I draw. As always it didn’t disappoint.

Saw many, many, deer but not where I actually expected them to be. Put on a lot of miles and hiked a lot hills and finally found one to take for a ride.

That's a nice Whitetail anywhere you go. I'm guessing this would be a well above average Whitetail buck in the hills?

I agree nice buck for the Black Hills.
I like that featherweight Winchester as well.

Nice buck. Model 70 featherweight? What caliber?

That is a .280 Rem. I do reload...but I cannot beat the factory Federal Power-Shok 150gr bullets. They shoot 3/4” at 200. More than one time!

This guy was 260 yards, cruising for does. The rut was not ranked up at all as far as I could tell.
