Guess he got to Know me
Brings back many memories. A QCI deer was my first "big" game animal, when I was 14. I was solo, creeping through a block and jumped a group of 4 or 5. As the adrenaline flooded my system i picked one at random and aimed my grandpas .222, sqeezed a shot and knocked one over. My dad found me and we went to look at my trophy: it weighed at least 30lbs! But it sure was tender.
"Don't fixate on getting the biggest bucks out there. Does open Sept and they make awesome table fare. In my opinion, it's probably more important to go through all the steps of finding an animal, stalking, shooting, finding, field dressing and finally quartering the animal than collecting a little set of antlers. You will have 5 tags each so you can get a lot experience in a short time if you try. When I do drive back to the lowermainland with fish or deer I try to take a night ferry back, get a room on board and then I drive it in one shot (about 17 hours)."
This^^. Hunted 5 days in early June as a relative newbie a couple of years ago. There are deer everywhere. Really. Its a perfect opportunity to learn how to dress and butcher. Doesn't even count against your provincial limit... Bullet choice and shot placement is something to consider. Stay away from the shoulder, they are not big, so with an expanding bullet and a shoulder shot , you will regret the meat you lose. But what amazing meat.... There's a store in QCC that will sell you ice by the cooler. Ice>spruce boughs>meat = perfect. You will have success and fun!
Also, listen to Nog...
Tons of great info, Thank you! My family and I are going September 10th to 19th. Coho are running then and we are hoping to do some fishing as well.
