Well so far season is shaping up. I killed a nice spring bear for WY and with my 6.5 Sherman . I also killed my best mule deer every archery hunting.
My wife and I drew antelope tags and had a bitter sweet hunt as a week prior our Lab was diagnosed with fast growing cancer. As I was wallowing in my beer my wife suggested we just road hunt with him as it would be his last trip. So we left Thursday morning. It was good hunt as she killed a good goat at 346 yards with her Creed and the next day I used her rifle to fetch one at 702 yards. I didn't take my rifle as I wasn't in the uber hunting mode and he stood on the ridge way to long. This was all on done by Saturday and ended up putting Drake down on Monday.
RIP Big Drake
Ok well wife has a deer tag and we got her on to her first mule deer and it was a good one for us. Shot at about 140 yards. That was also her first antelope.
Our son and I have quality elk tags and both drew an extra white tail buck tag so we will see here in WY. The wife and I will be going to Illinois for white tail in December so more to follow
Awesome pics, thanks for sharing and sorry for your loss, we put our lab down a month ago and it really sucks
on a way better note what bullet you kill that bear with out of your Sherman
