Opening day buck

Work always gets in the way of my outdoor fun and a last minute trip out west threatened to ruin the opening season. I had only opening day evening to sit in the stand and my flight leaves early in the morning but it worked out great. A young 6 pointer to punch my first tag for the season.

Solid hit but he ran so I waited until dark to start tracking.

Lost the trail but found it again in the thickest stuff.

I’m never doing leg day and abs before hunting again. I was beat before I hit the stand.

Always nice to get one on opening day! I only saw does last night.

I only saw raccoons. Heard a shot at 6:45AM

Hunting, fishing, and poker are my sports. Work when necessary.

Nice work!

I was trying to hit shoulder bone but didn’t find the mark but still managed to leave piles of lung at the impact site. I was hoping for an anchor but got a good blood trail instead. Didn’t go far.

Thanks for the report

Jordan,
Pretty cool on opening day. I was planning on hitting the woods but after 10 hours at work just wasnt feeling it. Congrats on your kill. As much as tracking sucks it makes the hunt more fun in my opinion.
