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

Nice looking doe.

possumal has it figured out!!  :laf: :laf:

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

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.  :biggrin: :biggrin:

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