Split second decision

It has been a while since I've posted. I figure why not start here.

2018 has been a rough year for me when it comes to muleys. After working hard but getting schooled in Wyoming, I was hoping my Utah tag would be different. Opening day, the pumpkin patch held true to form. We easily saw 10 hunters for every deer we could locate. I don't know for sure, but I feel like the spike hunters really made an impact this year. There was so much pressure that the deer were scattered.

On the second day we decided to change things up a bit. We decided to try one of our old areas that we hadn't been to in a while. The morning produced more of the same. We decided to part ways and cover some country to see if changing elevation would help. Sure enough, I started getting into deer.

After jumping a few bunches without getting much of a look, I was feeling very inadequate. I had to change something. When I got to the next patch of timber on a north facing slope, I slowed down to a snails pace. The deer busted me again!!! But I was more prepared this time. I saw he was a decent buck so I picked an opening between the trees and hoped he would pause. Luckily he gave me just enough time. As soon as I pulled the trigger the buck had disappeared.

I slowly worked my way forward, not knowing whether or not the deer had been hit. It didn't take long for me to find him. He was dead on his feet propped up next to some deadfall. I'm very greatful for the time I've been able to spend outdoors this year.
