I took a buddy out deer hunting this weekend who'd never been hunting before. We went to the Flint Hills of Kansas and he scored on a nice 8 point!
He was amazed at the walking involved- I'm a glass and stalker.

We glassed this one up in a creek bottom, got to within 20 yards and he shot it with my Kimber Montana .308 in it's bed.

We got checked by a couple Game wardens when we got out to the road and they asked if they could take pics and post it on their Facebook page.

Pretty cool- here' the link-

Thumbs up guys!! Way to go on the spot, stalk and first time shot! There are deer out on that walk in hunting; it is just putting in the perseverance to connect with them.

Great work setting side your own hunting time to help a newb! More of us need to be deliberately involved in that!

Good story! I'd like to hunt that land the same way.
