World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007
How has Everyone’s Hunting Season at Home been?
- Thread starter Aaron N
- Start date
Prairie Mule Deer (4x4) pursued all day and for many miles until he finally got out of the deep Coulees and hunkered down in some buck brush allowing the stalk.
No time allotted for great pictures with all the work to ensue. (Hunting in Africa with trackers is so damned easy at this point of the hunt.)
After caping this big guy out I determined that this is absolutely the most ancient critter I have ever hunted.
Literally one incisor left. Molars just about gone.

Nice mulie, did you happen to use your 416? Looks like he was in full rut. They also take better pictures 
Thanks.
I have found that the size of the deer increases exponentially with the absence of snow to drag the deer.
Distances and climbing required a lighter rifle. 300 Win Mag.
May take the 416 out for the last chance at a Whitetail buck.

Have not got to hunt much, but did manage to take this smaller 7 point last weekend. New to me interarms mark x 30/06 with 150 grain hornady interlocks.

Some great pics by many in this thread. I’ve had some good luck as well. Antelope and mule deer in Colorado, turkey with bow and bear with 7mm in PA. Still looking for whitetail here in PA

Well the 2018 season is over for my family. Tina shot her second whitetail in as many years today. We were joined by her son for the first time. He was quite excited!

I miss deer hunting!! I love moose and caribou but for some reason in my eyes nothing compared to a big whitetail.. that being said I still haven't hunted mule deer or elk.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.
