Had a great weekend hunt with my son. He didn't have a tag so came along, spotted, helped strategize and generally just make the weekend better. Was glad he was right by my side when we were on our stalk. Saw this buck bed down and stalked to within what we thought was range. Hard to say on the wide open plains. Kept poking along and he blew out at 20 yards from us. Paused at 40 and that got him killed. Was a good day for stalking with high steady winds. Good load of prime mule deer in the freezer and more tags to go.

Lloyd is my 58 caliber Hawken. Always a pleasure with Lloyd along.
