Deer - lets see em

Was out looking for elk by myself. He jumped up close in the timber- looked at me, and all I could think of was steaks in the empty freezer...

2.7 miles in, 1200' up. Two trips to make sure my ankle didn't break when I eventually rolled it on the way down. Ended up with 81 lbs of meat in the freezer- anybody have a typical weight on what they get from a buck?

Was absolutely shot when I drove the first load back to camp. The massive 4+ pt in the headlights on that first drive back was salt in the wound. But I'm really glad I didn't see a bull back in there- I might still be up there.

Headed out for a solo hunt last weekend. Good area with zero foot traffic (amazingly), and I had a big section of state land to myself. I bumped this buck still hunting into a stiff wind, and he was chasing a doe that walked within 30 yards of me. They looped out into thicker timber and she walked by again at about 40 yards, with him on her tail. He stopped to give me a broadside shot and that was that. 2.2 miles to the truck, two trips, and the cooler was full for the drive home.
