I drew a limited permit for deer this year in a lesser known area and was fortunate to spend quite a bit of time in my area. After talking with the manager of the area I was sad to learn that the size of mule deer I was hoping to find was larger than what the area normally produces. I searched anyway and saw surprisingly few mule deer, buck or doe. After a while I started focusing on the whitetail down lower and saw a few good bucks and passed on a couple pretty nice bucks before taking this one. I had watched a good buck bed down earlier in the day and went in after him in the evening. Long story short, I jumped this buck and had to make a split second decision. He's not the biggest buck I saw this year or the biggest whitetail I've shot, but I can't say I'm disappointed in him either. Good luck to those who still have tags in their pockets.
