OK, opener was kind to us.

Lots of dry does, does & fawns seen in the morning sit.

I let 2 small bucks walk & Deb saw a good one, but never got a shot.

4pm Saturday afternoon, I heard a shot from Joes direction, in the opposing 1/4 section.

Small buck, forkhorn, but good solid body.

Meat for the pole.

At 5:45, with the light fading, something made me lightly pull down my right side window.

Good deer, on hinds, licking a high branch !

Then the ensuing nightmare of shifting gear, setting up & shooting left handed out of the right side window, all without spooking the deer.

By the time I got back on the deer, he was quartering to me & knew the gig was up.

25-06 barks, good solid hit, deer hunches up & runs.

POA was just inside facing shoulder, to exit behind opposite shoulder.

You can see a tiny exit, mid body, slight blood leak.

Back story, had some issues getting my normal 115gr SST's shoot consistently & with no time left to dick around, I went to my usual fall back, 117gr Federal Fusion.

Bone & ribs going in, top of heart, lungs & creased the liver & 2 ribs going out of the cavity, found under hide !

Shank side, to show integrity of shank.

Hung, gutted, skinned & cleaned up.

Butcher & vacuum pack on Thursday night, 'cause we leave for Europe on Wednesday evening.

crazy

Santiam, great pics!


Ed, that place is racist!


JM and Paul, it looks like I’m gonna miss most of the first half of PA bear season. I’ve been preoccupied with Oregon’s Roosevelt Elk.

Mike,

Get ‘er done! They’ve got knees down pat. Find the best knee Doc in your area and go for it. Pain strips the years off.


I'm not so sure about that....a friend recently came real close to having a leg removed due to a knee surgery gone wrong.His hunting days are over with.
