Takla1 and Buddy Nov 25th Blacktail

[takla1]

Well the snow was falling lightly this morning and my bud stevie gave me a call at 6 am,"hey lets go find a blacktail".Thats about all the proding that i need .Anyhow when Ruger No.1 see's this blacktail he's gonna wish he didnt have work today!!So Stevie and i head out to a spot we been watching the last 2 weeks,weve seen lots of scraps and in there and the last time in we seen a large dry bt doe so we know there in there.So we head up at first light and we split up,he goes one way towards a recent cut block and i keep on climbing up to a higher timber ridge i had my eye on.So i set up about 50 yds into the bush,fresh scrape all around and the walkie talky goes off,its Stevie,Hey i just seen a doe with two fawns come out ino the cutblock,so i radio back"watch them close,could be a buck on them".Next thing i know i hear his gun in the distance.Call back and he's like,man a beautiful big Blacktail buck came out on the doe and fawns.Well i had a 30 min hike down to where he shot the buck and when i got there i couldnt believe his luck ,A large bodied 4 by3 bt down...1 shot behind the shoulder at 120 yrds with his 7 mil mag and he piled up right there.The only problem was right there was 100 yds almost straight down into the cut block and it was nasty.That was at about 8;00 this morning and i just got home at 3;00.soaked and tired we had to pull the buck up to the access road with a truck,but its done now...pic's to follow
