NC Whitey

Bow season came and went for me and I saw no shooter bucks, same thing for muzzle loader season.

Our rifle season opened Sat. Nov. 22 in NC in the NW region. It was 15 degrees and windy. I hiked back into my favorite hunting spot and shot this dude right after first light.

I got to my spot, put on my bibs and parka and was opening up some hot hands when I heard him coming down the hill towards me. I had to be patient to get a clear shot through all the brush, finally I found a hole and made a good shot with my trusty model 700 Remington 270 win. I didn't even have time to get cold!!!

This is the first time I have ever shot an opening day rifle buck!
He is not a giant but a very respectable buck for my hunting area.

Thanks for looking

Yes you did get a nice buck.That is really the kinda deer we need to be shooting here instead of all the yearlings.Looks kinda hilly there too.congrats.

Nice buck complete but do you want me to my buck pic on here and make yours look bad

Sure,
Post him up, or email me the pics and I'll post for you!
