Nash and I have had a good season so far.. I haven't hunted as much this year as last year, but have still got out a good bit. First up is Nash's whitetail doe, he waded across the Musselshell, shot the doe with his Marlin .44, then canoed her out.. Next is Nash's buck.. He shot it at about 80 yards with my 7mm-08 Mtn rifle.. 150 NBT put him right down. Big ol' fat varmint.... Last(so far), is a whitetail doe I shot.. 50 gr V-Max to the neck dumped her in her tracks.. First deer I've ever shot with my .22-250, it won't be the last, I'm sure. Dad and I are going out in the morning after a big buck I saw a couple days ago, hopefully I'll be adding him to this thread shortly... Thanks for looking. Ben

Cool beans Ben! You know of course that you can't kill deer with a centerfire .22.........

mtcurman; Good morning to you Ben, it's nice to see you on again and thanks so much for sharing your season with us so far. Please send congratulations along to Nash on both deer - a canoe hunt is something I've never been able to pull off just yet and still want to someday. Nice buck as well. I hope you find the big buck you're looking for Ben, but even if you don't I'd suggest that your season has been successful on several levels. Thanks again and all the best to you folks Ben. Dwayne

We need more young folks to be like these 2. Can only happen with good parents.
Congrats to you and Nash,and congrats to your folks for raising you as you are being raised.

Good to hear Ben. It seems like the mule deer are just beginning a comeback. Does it look like that to you?
