Man what a great great hunt today. I got to meet up with Landman to check stewart county off my list, and man did we do it.
2:50 we were easing up to the plot and sure enough there were some does on it. I set the rifle on my shooting stick... bang flop 7 saum 150 e tip 2959 mv she dressed 107 82 yds
We skirted around the plot and made it to shooting house. Jimmy climbed in and I got to the top of ladder there is another one.
3:02 hanging on the ladder bang she made it 10 yds at most 81 yd shot 7 saum dressed 60
we sat down in the blind and started talking I was like i wished i had brought my AR r-15. he was like go get it. so i humped it back to his ford raptor 6.2 hauled but back jumping deer the whole way got to my truck got the ar. hauled but back got in the house.
had a buck come out watched him for a bit then another buck and the 6 does @300 one was borderline cow elk
i will dream about that doe. Could of taken her but wanted one close for the r-15
4:30 big momma 69 yds r-15 53 barnes tsx 3208 fps busted onside shoulder exit behind off side shoulder ran 40 yds if that dressed 97 lbs exit was good size
just a great hunt. the absolute best was when jimmy said " that was the best hunt i have had and not pull the trigger"
that statement made my day
a lot of good conversation I am sure i talked his ears off .
all i know if i hit powerball tomorrow i will be having dinner with jimmy thursday and will make him an offer he cant refuse heck i may even by his truck
very thankful to get this county checked off, help thin some does, and help his buddy with some jerky
223 entrance
exit
kind of a milestone deer 225 first with my r-15
