Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting What did you kill this deer season?

Meat bucks for me. Hoping to her some better quality bucks next year.

Same here, was a tough season where I hunt.

One decent 8pt so far, plus 3 does. Will try to get one more for the freezer before season wraps up in about 10 days. My primary hunting tract is about 800acres and we've yet to see a shooter buck there in the daylight this year (3 hunters). Hogs have been slow also, as most movement is only late at night and they've been spread out. I'll get some patterned on feed after deer season and work on them until the weather gets hot.

I haven't killed a deer this year. That's the first time in over 30 years that I haven't killed a deer. I've still got a week and a half of spike/doe season and I have a chance to get down to a ranch in south Texas on the MLD program, so the fat lady isn't singing yet.

Monsta buck 🥴

Brown it’s down mode day🤷‍♂️

Whitetail buck, 23 yards Mathews VXR 125 grain slick trick broad head. [Linked Image]

Couple of 9s one a little messed up the other was decent. Another 8 I guess I didn't get a picture of and a handful of does

A doe in October, with my Hawken.
A 9 pointer with my 760 35 Remington
A buck, that already shed his antlers, New Year's Day with my 760 35 Remington.

No deer this year but I did shoot an antelope and a 5x5 bull elk. I missed hunting deer, but mule deer tags are getting harder to draw in Oregon.

The antelope was killed on a hunt in New Mexico with a .280 Remington using a 139 grain LRX over Reloder-16. The distance was about 200 yards.

The elk was shot on a steep brushy hillside on public land in NE Oregon with a .30-06 using a 168 grain TTSX over H4350. The distance was about 30 yards.

I can only post on my hunting partner's behalf. Grandson put deer number 3 and 4 in the freezer this year. I only provided transportation, fieldcare and processing.

Last year age 10:




This year age 11:




I shot a WT doe and dink buck (smallest of my career). Nothing pic-worthy...

Rifle


And several of these

Nothing. I was humbled this season after killing two last year all I managed this year was to miss three Doe

Nothing just guide and help the granddaughter much more satisfying.

The only deer so far is an unremarkable 8 point and one coyote. The NASCAR version: Mossy Oak camo with Cabela's Outfitter Berber neck gaiter, Dry Shod boots, Weatherby Mk V lightweight kevlar & graphite stocked .30-06 with a Swarovski Z3 3-10x42 BRH reticle, Barnes Factory loaded 175 gr LRX ammo, Leica Trinovid 8x42 and 1000-R rangefinder with Marsupial Gear chest pack. 0730 and 27 degrees. No name gloves! Ha!

…and numerous Pigs with my Sig Cross 308.

A doe with a 7mm-08 and a small pine tree with my 35 Rem. The pine saved a dandy bucks life, lol.

Ended the season today on a last day archery doe. Quartering away, arrow blew through the boiler room and exited in front of the shoulder. Exit wound in the pic below. Cold and snowy, but I had to get out one last time…

They sure grow fast don't they?
