Weston Report post Posted October 24, 2010 Well, opening morning I left camp at 4 AM and started my hike into some country that ALWAYS holds deer. about 6 30 I get to the first spot I like to glass from and glassed up 11 deer on one hill side but alas only 2 bucks and one was a fork while the other a spike. so I continued hiking. at about 8 30 I had glassed up 4 other small bucks and 3 decent bucks including one fighting with a fork. so I worked my way over the next finger and put up the spotting scope on the fighting bucks. I decided I wanted to take one of the bucks so I started getting my shot ready. about 15 minutes lated the scope was dialed in for the 600 yard shot and off it went. The buck went about 15 yards and piled up I hit him almost in the top of the back and it exited oput his chest right below the two front legs (quartering away hard) the buck he was fighting stayed around for about 30 minutes and didnt know what was up. My buck is in the top left corner this is the buck it was fighting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weston Report post Posted October 26, 2010 Hello Weston. I think I met you last year. I was with the group that managed to tow a trailer up on the Mesa. Congrats on the buck. How is the predator hunting going this year? Mike Yup! that was me, Thanks! Predator hunting is going well but slow I'm only at about 10 dogs so far this year but just started hitting it 3 weeks ago so hopefully within a few months I'll get some good bobcats on the ground!
