My first deer
« on: October 25, 2004, 01:58:00 PM »
Here's a picture of my first deer, a mulie taken up at Lancaster Frasier River Valley Outfitters.  One shot kill with my handloaded .30-06.  I was 13 years old, 16 now.

wow, great buck.  You might have a hard time topping that one though.  I guess you could have worse problems.   :grin:


Now you need to try elk hunting. It's way more addictive.

Awesome deer (my first and biggest one was an 8 point...have yet to get anything bigger  :cry: ). Is this your first time out deer hunting? If not...have you gotten other deer in the past? Once again, congrats on the beautiful buck and take care!  :D

Well, I was curious because I have a friend who was sending his kid with someone else (because he couldn't hunt to save his life... :)  :-D ) to go after deer. I explained to someone who said, "Oh I hope he gets one." I remember my first year of deer hunting. I didn't even have a rifle to use...it was cold, oh my dear Lord it was cold, I was illy dressed and it started to snow my 4th hour on stand (and I was jumping up and down anyway). No deer. Then my 2nd year was when I got the 8 point. And all the years after that....no taker bucks (oh my it's been sooo long.... :cry: ). So...it's good to know u weren't spoiled  :)  :-D  .Good luck to you and everyone else this year!!  :D
