I just had one of the best hunts I have ever had. My wife had a half day of school and let me out to play in the snow for a few hours. The woods were covered in a blanket of fresh snow and it was still coming down. About a hour into the hunt it started coming down harder. This good sized Doe came out about 50 yards away from me. I grabbed my bow off the hook and stood there waiting for the shot. When I could see she was coming my way I got ready and looked down at the bow. I had to brush off the snow from the feathers and the rest to take the shot. She ran about 35 yards and I watched her drop. Just an awesome hunt in the snow. Never have I been hunting in snow like this. And to top it off in November.
Funny thing I never knew it was a buck until I walked up to it. All that snow and the low hanging tree limbs covered his head I never noticed the antlers, Nice surprise!!

What's funny is how big that buck is. He is big. You are 6'5" 260# and he still looks big.
-
o so now I am a fat guy 260 come on maybe 245 and only 6'3" , looked like a big doe to me I saw meat in the freezer walking in. I got a ton of meat of this deer. And I gave some to my friend that was a big help coming out in the storm just to take a picture for me.
Keith I hope the deer in KS that you see or harvest are 200+ lbs and 170+ in antler!!!! MONSTERS!!!!! out there I know I dream about going back all the time.
-
Great picture. That smile says it all. :clapper:
-
That is a classic picture and almost makes a guy go back in time. Nice to see such genuine joy on your face too. Hard to beat those TallTines :thumbsup:
-
I'm not a huge snow fan but would love to hunt it. We seldom get snow here. Well done and nice TT.

Fine harvest and great experience.....

Fantastic!! You got a lot more snow down there than we got out of the storm. Nothing better than hunting in the snow. I hope your area has recovered from Sandy. I grew up just over the border from Enfield.
