Hunted the stands saturday morning, nothing.I got busted 5 minutes into my stand.Just got the seat warm and there was a blow down in the pines in front of me.Never saw the deer and couldn't tell which way it went.
We took the dogs out and hunted for grouse in the afternoon, nothing again,was a nice day for a walk though.
We made supper and decided to do some spot and stalk for the evening hunt.Drove up to an abandoned oil well lease and took a look into a cut block.Right off there was a deer feeding at the end of a pipeline right of way,about 600 yards away.I could see that it was a buck and we had about 45 minutes of light so went for it.
After a 20 minute stalk thru the trees I poked my head out of the timber and here he comes right to us.Larry won the toss so he had the shot,double lunger at 20 yards.It is a small 8 point and about a 175 pounds dressed.
I may have to send pics to someone to post as my host has been down a long time.

Ok here he is.This pic was taken the next day as it was dark as the inside of a cow when we got back to camp.He ain't big in the antler dep't but he has a good sized body,and besides Larry don't care how big the antlers are.

Way cool and congratulations.
Nothing small about a 175# deer in my area. I'd be doing handstands and happy that I only had to clean one this year.
