White tail down!!!!!!

[aliagha]

well after 3 great years of hunting in bc, it was once again time to scavenge the hilsl for deer. Sept 2nd woke up at 4 a.m, loaded the truck and head out to southern okanagan. upto this point the biggest deer i harvested was a small 3 pt whitey and this being my final year as a youth i really wanted to get something really nice, so i was ready to do some tough bush waking and hike every single hill until i had my buck. went and bought a gun sling, took out my old back pack, hiking boots and stick but little did i know what was in store for me. original plan was to hunt around m.u 8-14 but on our way there we received a few tips which led us to this place. 5 mins into the hunt we find a little spike whitey right in the middle of the FSR, but i was hoping for sumthing bigger and i had 2 full days to do it......wha.....wait there are three more bucks standing on top of the hill, a couple 2 pt and a beautiful velvet 3X3, Dad really wanted me to take the 3 pt but i was still gonna hold out for something better so i decided to shoot it with my camera instead. we decided to drive around and find a trail and hike. drove a km more in the bush and found this guy standing 100 yards away from the truck, a beauty 3x4 whitey exactly what i wanted. the adreline pumped, i jumped out the truck......Bang, first shot right in the lungs, the buck started running downhill...reload.......bang..... a .150 gr. bullet right through the neck.... the buck rolled into a ditch, had to use bit of muscle to pull it out. well it turned out to be a great start of the season, a 3X4 in 20 minutes into the hunt. I AM OVERJOYED.
hope you guys enjoy the pics and thanks to all the members of this site for there great tips.
ALI.

Good for you to pass up on the first smaller Bucks you guys seen! Then to hammer the one you went there to take is incredible! And your Dad has a lot of faith in you, he didn't slap you along side your ear when you did pass up the Legal Smaller Bucks! Congrats on a fine looking White Tail Buck!

Thank you for your kind words guys. the most important thing i have learn t is that patients is a virtue, in all my past hunts i shot the first legal animal i saw and for that reason never got anything nicer. and i am also really thank full of my dad for taking me out there and letting me have the luxury to keep on searching for what i wanted.
thanks dad.
