We had everything going against us. The wind was at our back, we were walking towards him when he spotted us and my son spotted him.
We all stood in the middle of the road in a stare down. He was about 100yds out but for some reason (thinking through the wrong head during rut season) he was slowly closing in on us. Finally he stop about 70yds out and turned to head down the hill (which had just been logged) and just as he turned and start to leap, BOOM... goes the 300win mag. He dropped about 40yds down the hill and there he laid.
Gutted, then hauled back up the hill (by my son, since my knees would not handle hit) and by 6:30pm we were muddy, bloody, tired and heading home.
He was skinned that night and bagged up to hang. The next day he was taken to the butcher to be processed. My son got about 50#'s of meat for his freezer.

Meyeridricks admits killing to conserve is a “difficult argument to make” when people focus on the welfare of an individual animal. The “greater good” is achieved by using hunting revenue to protect and grow wildlife numbers, he said.

Sort of like what our Wisconsin does to cull the over abundance of deer.

I took a doe last night with my bow. First deer in a few years. I passed on a small buck right before the doe came in too.]]>
