Browning'sCustomMeat Report post Posted January 2, 2008 Well, this makes deer #14. But my first muley, and with a bow. He was taken on the 26th at 50 yds. I was on my way out to glass for an hour or two after work on Wednesday because I had the following two days off. On my way out I looked around and just happened to catch this guy walking around a ridge. I pulled over, got everything ready for me to start stalking. I had to fix my binos, because the zip-tie on my bino buddies broke. So, after a few minutes I started after this buck. I came to the top of a little hill and started glassing a bit and found him under a cedar. I was stuck where I was, because I had no place to move to get any closer and I was still 100yds or so away. I snuck down the hill into a draw and came up about 65yds from him. He heard me but couldn't see me, so I held tight and didn't move. After a bit, he relaxed and bedded down, "What?" Its my lucky day! I made my stalk as close as I could get before coming to a stand still from all the manzanita around me. Now all I could see was his 3rd on the left side. I stood to where I could get a good shot hoping he would get up out of his bed. I waited a few seconds then made a ruckus and drew back. He spun around in his bed and poped his head up. I pu my 50yd pin on him and let one fly. He jumped and ran. I came around the ridge he came over, found his blood, followed it for about 150yds and found him piled under some brush. This story isn't very long but i am very pleased with this buck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Browning'sCustomMeat Report post Posted January 9, 2008 Sorry about the frown on my face, it should be a big grin. I was talking to the guy who took the picture and never gave me a warning when he was hitting the button. I am really happy with this buck. If you want Mike, I could take another and post it. -J- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
