Another BC Buck
I shot this buck in the timber about 5 min drive and an hour and a half walk. I was sneaking along, grunting and using "The Can" doe bleat when I heard some noise on the other side of the steep ridge I was on. I peaked over the top and spotted what I thought was an ass of a deer about 70 yards below me. I looked through the bino's and saw that it was a deer, but could not tell what as it was thick with regen. I used my scope at 9 power to see that it was a doe. When she walked away, I raised my head to get a broader view. When I looked back at where she was standing, I saw some serious bone in her place. I quickly looked back through the scope, saw what I liked and dropped the crosshairs down behind his shoulder and squeezed one off. He walked a couple of steps and then just fell over. When I got down there, a doe ran off and this is what I saw..
He is 186 gross and 179 net green. I waited 5 years, passing up smaller bucks and screwing up on a couple like him before my dues were paid. Got to love timber hunting big mulies!!!
