Deer - lets see em

2019 UT general season muzzleloader

2020 opening day UT general archery, same basin killed 400yds apart. The velvet buck I had miss judged my yardage as he was closer than I thought but he was facing me while I was at full draw and smacked him center in the noggin… not proud of that one but he went down like a dropped sack of spuds

So you had planned on taking a frontal on a deer? How close were you? That's a pretty small opening. Glad it worked out though...

You guys and your lack of snow in November and December, are pissing me off...

No I never plan on taking a frontal while archery hunting but on a deer I’m not afraid to under right conditions. He was at 60 but I guessed him at 75. I had him bedded in a pocket of timber waiting to stand up and had been ranging rocks and jack pines in his only pathway out of that stand of trees. Then I had some day hikers roll through the basin talking loud and laughing and it spooked him out into the open, I drew my bow when he got up but he stopped in the middle of that clearing looking at those hikers with the sun in his face so I sent it.
