Friends first, wife's first, my first

Recommended Posts

Started the year with a buddy and his girlfriends early coues hunt. Glassed a few bucks up opening morning and sent them on a mission. They made it about 180 yds and looked in the bottom to find this buck walking the bottoms by himself. Buck bedded up and she made a 150 yard shot to fill her first deer tagpost-13407-0-54507500-1478707819_thumb.jpg

 

Next up was my wife's mule deer hunt. She drew the tag 2 years ago with no luck filling the tag. On Sunday morning she glassed this buck 1250 yds away. Being 4 months pregnant made me nervous dragging her across the desert in the heat. We set up on him a few times and she just didn't feel comfortable. Made the never ending stock to get to 290 yds and she drilled him. Her first deer tag filled.post-13407-0-33002700-1478708089_thumb.png

 

Next up was dad and I on a November coues hunt. Spent the first 3 days glassing nothing but does and rabbits. Frustrated but we kept at it and at 245 on Monday afternoon I glassed up my first buck of the hunt. Got set up and sent a round at 450 yds across the canyon. Sun was absolutely brutal and there wasn't a shade tree around to keep the sun off the scope. Dad noticed two bucks stood up after I shot so we flipped roles and he hit the dirt behind the gun. After finally getting his buck in the scope he sent the shot and we both had our first double in the books. post-13407-0-69114700-1478708487_thumb.jpg

 

Would like to thank Shawn, Hannah, kyle, Scott, Justin, dad, and most of all the wife. It's been a great year and the mrs. still has a December cow tag to fill. Wish the rest of you luck with upcoming tags. Thanks

Thanks a lot guys. The last year has been hectic. Built a house, got married, knocked her up. It was a much needed three weeks of being in the woods. Thanks again
