WHT_MTNMAN Report post Posted December 30, 2018 As some of you may know I've spent quite a bit of time hunting Coues and it is by far my passion but since I've made a yearly pilgramage to Mx for coues I've decided to spend a bit more time chasing Mule deer. Well my wife and I travelled to Wy on a 6 day backpack hunt. I was disappointed that this buck was the highest scoring buck I saw, but not disappointed in his "look" I was happy to kill him and pack him back with my beautiful bride of 19 years by my side. Next my Son drew a tag up around the house and after me scouting and finding some solid bucks he reminded me that he couldn't play basketball if he missed any days of school or tryouts so after passing a couple solid 3x4s on Friday he told me he needed to shoot something. As disappointed that all of my scouting would be as not, I have never been the father to live vicariously through his children. He wanted this velvet 4x4 ( October 28th) and so he shot him. I'm proud of him. Next I was able to finish 2018 in a blizzard at 15° on this 4x4 with a 45ish yard shot. Sorry about all the mixed up pictures in the story. I haven't mastered the new look yet. 15 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
