My wife and I got out this morning for a mule deer hunt out in the desert. Started checking the sage about a half mile back from some farms and came up with this fella. Not a monster by any means, but a great day and a fun hunt.

Nice buck.
I don't think I have ever seen one hung up at home ungutted. Why would you do that? just wondering..
 
Great job bet he taste good enjoy alfalfa bucks usually are the best nice job. Better than a fFriday at work for sure.
 
A un gutted animal hanging is really easy, we do it all the time with sheep at my uncles ranch but we have a backhoe to bury all the guts. I would hate to be the trash guy on Thursday.
 
Got him just a few miles from the house, and not real far from the truck. Just slid him into the back of the truck and took him home. Figured it would be easier and cleaner with a hose and a 4 wheeler trailer under him to catch and haul off the gut pile. Don't ask my why I hung it with hind legs up........took him down and rehung with head up before we started on the task.
 
Congrats on the buck Jeff! Glad to see you getting out in the field. By the look of your sweatshirt it appears you are enrolled in school again.

Thanks, Been not enough time for hunting the past few years. Building a house and going back to school has been hell on my free time. Finally all done and enjoying 4 day work weeks. Next up, got an extra whitetail doe tag to fill. Spent the day breaking down this deer into edible pieces...

Oh man that looks SO good. People can show off racks all they want, but its' cut up slabs of fresh wild meat that gives me a boner. Nice job.
