I have a STS 80 HD with the 25-50 wide angle. Also has the Swarovski three piece cover. I was going to send it in to Swarovski for a clean up then sell it in the spring and get the STX. PM me if interested.
When you walk up and his neck is still flailing around and moving so that you can’t even poke him in the eye.........this has to be the least self aware person in the world.
The youngster was pumped and his dad was jumping around. Fun to watch. I noticed that the first thing he did after the buck fell was clear the chamber and make sure he gun wasn’t loaded before he did anything else.
Here’s some more pics from our group. We only had two days to fill 3...
He asked me if I ever got a pic of him standing up. I did not. I took the picture bedded then I was looking though the spotter when he shot. I never hinted that he was close to 145. I stated that he wasn’t and then I asked if these deer who get to this stage of life would ever make it...
No. I was watching the impact though my spotter so I could let him know if he hit the mark. I’m not saying he’s 145. Not even close. I’m just asking if this deer based on genetics could have ever got there no matter how long he lived.
Montana mule deer sometimes throw me for a loop. I swear I’ve seen tons of bucks in the “prime” of their lives but most never seem to score well. Crabby fronts or missing g3s are not exactly far and few between——even on what I belive are 3-6 year old deer.
I was helping a 13 year old...
Hatch bipod. I ended up with some in-store credit with Outdoorsmans a few years back. It’s the best Tripod ever BTW. We agreed that if they just sent me the Hatch bipod it would be a wash. Totally awesome.
Easy on easy off. Worth its weight in gold. Keep it in your pack and throw it...
