Spike, It's not that small that you needed two sets of field glasses?

It was that small. I was with Snyder and he kept saying it's a fat doe and I was saying it's a fawn (we have this all on video so he can't deny it grin ) Anyway, it turned out to be a smaill doe but old, he figured about 6 years old judging by the teeth worn down to the gum lines. We got exactly what we were after, there are a ton of does in this area and they needed a little culling. We had a fun time and laughed at how ridiculas the whole thing was, the hunt lasted all of 20 minutes after leaving the truck. T'was a meat hunt.....even if it was for 27lbs.

Sorry, not field shot on the second one, but she looked just like the other one. Two very healthy 3.5 yo cows. Easy dragging with the sled, not so easy loading solo. laugh

In who's honor? Nice rifle, I am jealous. My 257 is just an old VG....

Checked their ID's.

Actually aged them by teeth wear. I am not great at it, but the the other two biologists that helped me with the processing handle a pile every year.
