Big Montana Double!!
If it makes you feel better, I've only killed two that were better (and by a very slight margin is all) and neither one was in Montana:)- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
There is a very high likelihood that these two boys may not top these bucks for many years! It is more fun watching these boys in the field than me packing a weapon myself. I would say there are going to be a lot of kill photos with these two boys in the upcoming years. Super proud of these...- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
As we crested the edge of the big draw, I was looking for a place to set up and sit the rest of the evening when I caught a glimpse of a buck heading across the hill on the opposite side. The second my binos hit him, I knew it was him. I told Tate it was him, and to chamber a round in the...- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
We decided to head back for the truck as we were nearing mid-day. As we crossed the end of one of the small coulees, we jumped two whitetail bucks at 25 yards and one was a BIG one! I couldn’t tell for sure what he had going on but looked like a kicker on one side and a split or extra tine on...- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
The next morning we were all still on cloud 9 as we headed back out to our state section to see if we could find any different bucks than we spotted the day before. About 1 hour into glassing, we picked up a nice 5x5 whitetail heading along the brush on the river bottom.We took off after the...- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
With a very short 50 yard blood trail, we found our prize. Braden’s first Montana deer at 10 years old ended up just over 21” wide and just over 152”. Lucky little bugger! Real proud of this kid for making a perfect heart shot and keeping his composure.- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
About 1 hour into our sit, we noticed some deer headed our way. One was looking like it was headed our way. Tate asked if he could shoot a doe with his bow if one of them came by. I figured since it was early, we could arrow one and still have time for things to settle before the bucks would...- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
After a few hours of glassing, we decided to go get some lunch and head back out to another spot that evening that we have some tree stands set up for archery hunting. With the deer still pretty patterned, we figured we would find Braden a buck and possibly Tate a doe. The three of us climbed...- thecrittergitter

Big Montana Double!!
Well, after going to Kansas and scoring big on his first deer ever, I told Braden he would have a hard time finding a deer that caliber in Montana. Of course, when the youth rifle season arrived, he would prove me wrong. And not only would he prove me wrong, so would his buddy Tate……. Tate and...- thecrittergitter

First MT Loper!
I told him the buck would be coming and to get ready. The buck crested and stopped. It’s not very often to have a tree branch block your view when antelope hunting but Tate said he couldn’t get a clear shot. We hurried and crawled about 20 feet. Tate lined up again and another tree blocked...- thecrittergitter

As we were making a play on this buck, the wind started picking up. By the time we crested the ridge we wanted to shoot from, the wind was blowing so hard that I knew we couldn’t shoot. Normally, 350 yards would be a shot that this .243 would have no trouble with but in winds like this, there...- thecrittergitter

When Day 2 rolled around, we asked Tate if he was ready to shoot one yet, the look on his face was priceless. He was as ready as a kid can be to hammer a goat! We had two bucks in particular from the previous day we wanted to target so we headed out at daylight to locate them. Sure enough...- thecrittergitter

The kids had a great time, looking for antelope, and putting a big hurt on the prairie dogs and Rabbits. It was great watching Tate and Braden as they took turns spotting and shooting prairie dogs. Man they made some crazy good shots too!- thecrittergitter

We had a great time picking on Tate! We saw some nice antelope bucks and kept telling him that we would look all over the first day and then come back the second day. Tried explaining that if he shot the first ones he saw, he would never know if there was a better one out there someplace else...- thecrittergitter
