Over the years I have had many successsful hunts with my buddy Cal. Together we have accounted for a number of dead turkeys in Sonoma and Marin County with our bows, but Cal can get it done with a rifle or shotgun as well.
After getting some handloaded ammunition and installing a new trigger, he connected on this nice Montana Whitetail.
My uncle tried to get this guy a couple days before without any success. He had been very leery and elusive in the daylight hours. So I actually got up very early one morning and put on some chest waders and sneaked down a creek in the dark to where I thought he might be feeding.
He was just leaving the field when it was shooting time. I could barely see his horns about 100 yards away. After I shot he fell straight down in his tracks. It was still kind of dark and I couldn’t tell if I got him for sure. Well as you can tell I was very happy when I walked up and found him laying there.I also had a doe tag and went back out and shot one with my bow.
