My Wifes first buck

[scott63]

We were after a unique blacktail buck that I had a trail cam pic of but the only time we saw him he was walking too quickly through the oaks for her to get on him. Then after not seeing him for 2 days we were down to the last half hour with only being able to hunt the next morning when we stumbled across this guy. I made a judgement call and told her she needed to shoot this buck. She made a great shot at 212 yards with her Tikka 7mm-08 and then the work started.

That's a nice one. Congrats on a fine trophy.

****. She got a nice one. I'd never pass up one like that.

 

[scott63]

Normally I wouldn't pass either, this is the one we were after though which made the decision a little tougher.

Looks like a G1 buck. It's been dry and windy up there, good buck!

If you had to think about shooting that buck...you been looking at too many whitetail tv shows....
That buck she got far outweighs the younger one you were after....
She killed a hellofava blacktail......
Congrats........

Congratulations to your wife on a successful hunt!

Hunting with my daughter to hunt has taught me, being successful in the beginning is more important than being picky.
