Thanks everyone. I need to admit up until the day I shot the buck it was looking pretty dim if either of us would get a chance. It sounded like you were walking on cornflakes with every step as dry as it was. I was very fortunate to have the single opportunity I had for a stalk work out. We both felt we would have had a great trip even if we didn't get that chance. Sometimes it just nice being there.

 Doug,

 Used the T/D Wing bow I have grown so fond of.

 Darryl,

 Thanks, cleaned out the mailbox some.

Well done Jack, thanks for taking us along.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

That's a special part of the world out there, I can't get enough of it! In my opinion Mule Deer are God's gift to bowhunters.

Congratulations. I truelly believe that a spot and stalk muley with a recurve is one of the trickiest hunts to do.

I hunted the badlands of ND a few years back, I would like to get back in the next few years.
