Deer hunt '07 - fsh4fun05 - 10-27-2007
Nothing to brag about except having a great time away from everything. I bagged this little buck opening morning, eh, opening safe light is more like it. I could hear wheelers buzzing up the mountain and figured the deer would scatter so I had my crosshair on this little guy at a guesstimated 250 yards knowing I was going to take the shot and the next thing I knew KABOOM! I meant to slowly squeeze the trigger but it still surpised me. 3 other 2 points scattered never to be seen again and I didn't know if I got it. I walked down the through the brush and there he was. The longest shot I've taken and to be honest, the best conditions I've ever had to take a shot. No wind, light clothing, no beating heartbeat, no hard breathing from hiking. I walked about 50 yards off the dirt road and was using my scope to glass the tree line, the rest is is history, gonna make some good jerky. I used my late Grandfathers' 1966 Remington 30.06 pump action, the same gun I used for my elk last Jan. Everytime I use it makes me miss him.
