First Deer

[smtimelevi]

Second deer hunt went well. Shot my first deer. Was a 10 point buck. Shot him right through the heart with my 30-30 at a little over 100 yds, open sights. I should have started doin this years ago.

How did you get into deer hunting?


I have done bird a lot but never done deer and want to try it.

 

[smtimelevi]

Thanks everybody! Thanks also to itchn2shoot for copying the pics. Now that we butchered it, damn there was alot of meat. I'm trying to figure out what to do with the skin. I want to make a rug out of it but I've herd alot of different things on how to do this. The hide is hanging on a clothes line right now.

 

[scubastasia]

Congrats... If you're tanning the hide I advise against using the clothes dryer as a tumbler. His wife almost killed him. Lol

Ive always wanted to do it but never had the chance. A co-worker/friend lives on a ranch thats about 200 acres. They have deer on his property so I asked him to take me hunting. The guy's about my age and goes every year and was nice enough to take me and even take pics after the kill. I got really lucky meeting somebody kind enough to help educate me on the sport and take me out on his property for free. He didn't even want any of the meat. Sometimes the starts will align just right if you know what you want to do in life and are patient enough to jump on good opportunities when you see them.

Yeah I have been trying to find someone that nice... Most of the people I know are on leases and dont/cant bring friends. I dont want to get a lease and not know what I am doing...

Eventually it will happen

congrats though

I'm in the same boat as you, cleric. I want to try out hunting but don't know any experienced hunters, who can take me under their wings
