Looks great Glen. But I have to ask. Does it really take you 6 hours to drive to the killing field?

Nah Jerry, old Glen has to have a good breakfast before doing his thing.

Nice backstraps there Glen.

Awesome!!

Like Jerry I was chuckling at the prep time though.

What do you do for 6 hours? I woulda taken a nap or started a garden or something.

Nice looking doe.

6 hrs, though, to get in the woods?

possumal has it figured out!!

I couldn't sleep & just decided to get out of bed is all.

I waited on my Brother to call & let me know when he was ready to head out. We weren't in a hurry & I just wanted a doe anyhow. Which we seen plenty to shoot. This one was bedded down when we drove past her. So I figured she would be the best. She laid there til I got the ML out of the soft case & put a primer in it. I walked down over the hill to find a nice resting spot. She stood up & walked down the hill a few yds & turned back to face me. So I shot her in the spine behind her head.

She spun & hit the ground & pushed herself a little further down the hill onto a nice open flat spot about 20yds from the trail. They brought the Ranger in to about 15yds & drug her out for me.

that's the way to do it, shoot'em, where there's not a lot of draggin...

When's dinner?

You gotta be purdy dumb to shoot one where I hunt & HAVE to drag it very far Dale!! 12 miles of 4 wheeler trails on 165 acres makes it purdy easy.

Tuesday around 5PM FOs!! Stop by & have some butterflies out the crock pot!!
