Deal
$1,500 cash for the Kimber and it is yours....or Nick’s.
Kimber is an Orygun outfit. Clackamas, Orygun originally. I'd do a .50 on the dollar deal just to get the damn thing out of my house.

Shooting with iron sights is good clean fun and all shooters should be proficient with them. Wait 'til you try a red dot on a pistol. It's like cheating.

Well who else blew it and ate their tag? No deer for me this year. Didn’t see a good buck all season... only on cam.

Never knew you'd started chasing warm blooded stuff around Matt, guess it's been way too damned long since we've talked. I took my first whitetail this year, a little 3 point. Usually chase blacktails out toward the coast, but got invited out to a public land deer camp north of Spokane with some extended family this year and got to try something new.
Definitely got a crash course on whitetail behavior, and learned that my slow creeping through the woods doesn't work so well. I was used to blacktails that run 20 feet and stop to look back; these things just run like hell for the next county. After busting 3 my first day (1 of which a family member that was posted up in the meadow below me shot), I decided that the next day I would find a place and just stay put as long as I could stand. I actually found an old ground blind that someone had built out of logs years back, and assumed that it was there for a good reason. After only about 20 minutes of waiting, a buck come through and stuck his neck out a little too far, and the rest was history.

Could have shot a smaller 15-16" 3pt in Washtukna first weekend but opted for a bigger buck, just tag soup for me now! Keith

I’ve only been deer hunting the last few years really. Been expanding things a bit beyond the bird hunting I’ve grown up with. I’ve had plenty of opportunities for tagging a doe, just no masher King Kong bucks yet. It’s been fun learning about deer and I’m confident with the skills I’ve developed so far. It’s only a matter of time for me now. I’ve learned quite a bit about blacktail but I may have to head East and pop the cherry with a whitetail. Thankfully it was a pretty solid year chinook fishing for me... so at least the freezer is stocked with plenty of fish.

I’ve never shot a bow before. One step at a time for me.
It would be like going from steelhead fishing barrier dam in the winter time then being handed a spey rod and ascot to fish a new river on the coast... except that you still haven’t actually caught a fish with traditional means... yet.
Good luck, Nick. I’m checking every day hoping to see pics of a massive King Kong in your hands.

I passed on several bucks young to very old, looking for the right one. I don't have anyone to blame except myself and my doe will eat good this winter. Look us up next year eh!

The elk showed back with the snow Thursday. Tried to keep it quiet around the neighborhood, but word got out. I ran into a family I knew who was trying to get their dad onto a cow, so we went together and each wacked one Friday night. Let him shoot first at about 320 yards. He tanked her good, 2nd shot tipped her over.
The herd really started moving quicker than I thought, they surprised me. Then they settled down so my first shot was 492 on a boss cow and I rang her bell. She was pretty sick, but kept moving...slowly. I was losing daylight, but I didn't want to spook the elk out (up over the ridge towards the refuge), as we have more peeps coming tomorrow (today). So I sent another one at 586 and that did the job. Got done about 11pm. One big azz biatch! Weighed one bullet, 122gr that started life at 140gr's. Those Accubond's have always killed.
