My morning hunt was a bust. I had one small doe meander around for about 10 minutes, then eased off to the bramble.
On the way back home, I spotted antlers in a ditch. Dad was following me and knew exactly why I was turning the Tacoma around.
I remembered seeing a car on the side of the road and a truck with its lights on in that same spot this morning, so I figured the car hit it (as evidenced by Chrysler 300 pieces everywhere) and the truck was there to help out. Well, it looks like he helped out by putting the poor buck out of his misery.
He had a fairly decent rack and being as cold as it was last night and morning, I figured the meat might be okay. Well, okay to supplement our dog's regular food.
No one is getting her tender vittles.
In process...
Remi gets the antlers, meat, and leg bones. Lucky dog.
I went back this afternoon and scored a 100lb doe. Unfortunately, the 123gr 6.5 Grendel destroyed an insane amount of meat. You would have thought she was made of liberal bicep.
Guess I need to go back to neck shots.
