2012 November Hunt

New guy here so figured I'd post how I did on my hunt last year. This was the second time I have ever been hunting for me I have gone with my dad plenty. This is my first deer ever. Here's how the story: Well I'm 14 and on opening day I got my first deer. I scored him at around 135!. My dad and I had been walking for about 2 hours. And let me tell you my arm was ready to fall off. Then my dad saw a buck stand up at around 230 yards. So I got set took a deep breath and pulled the trigger. Then we crossed over and began to look. We weren't sure of if I had hit him because we didn't find any blood, and I began to worry. So we kept looking and soon enough my dad found blood. Then I looked up and there he was my first deer and a MONSTER for a first deer if I must say so. http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r572/antlerman98/IMG_4484.jpg" alt="" /> first blood http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r572/antlerman98/IMG_4483.jpg" alt="" /> when we found him http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r572/antlerman98/IMG_4482.jpg" alt="" /> http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r572/antlerman98/IMG_4488.jpg" alt="" /> me holding him after we got him from under that tree

Thanks, but this buck did have its down sides. Such as long packout. This ole' buck weighed well over 300 lbs. The main thing is we had to hike out without the deer in order to get some help to pack him out.

Great job getting that beautiful buck! He is a real dandy! I think you will find that the further you are away from the truck, those 300 lb. bucks will weigh even more! Thanks for sharing your hunt with us. 10sign:

Great first buck, let alone first deer!

Now don't go getting spoiled and thinking this will happen every year. Sometimes you'll have to settle for something in the 290lb range!
