Thanks everyone! We got absolutely soaked by a rain storm while packing out the last buck. It was awesome! No gnats while it’s raining, haha! I am working on a video of the hunt, I will post a link once it’s done. 🎥

My two boys and my niece drew 20C youth tags this year and we knew it was going to be a challenge as it is a unit that we have never hunted. We did multiple scouting trips and were only finding does, fawns and a handful of spikes or small two points. As the hunt started we settled on an area that seemed to have a high deer density and just kept pounding away looking for some bucks. The second morning of the hunt we found ourselves glassing some country we had not worked over yet. Right away, I glassed up a bigger 2 point and a smaller one. My older boy told his brother to take the shot on the bigger buck. One shot at 543 yards and the buck was down. We had to reposition as the smaller buck had moved around a small rise in the ridge and joined some does. We got my niece to 282 yards and she hammered the buck. My brother was able to carry the smaller buck over so that we could get pictures all together. We headed home to get some work done and regroup. We got back out into the unit on Thursday night in hopes of my son filling his tag. We made a plan to look over some new country but were met with the same old story: does and fawns. We found a nasty 4x4 road that got us back into some great looking country and the best part is there were not any other fresh tire tracks on the road. It appeared that we would be alone back there. We made the slow crawl in the side by side early Saturday morning. We glassed and glassed and glassed some more. The country was beautiful, the weather was beautiful and we were seeing... you guessed it! Does and fawns. About 8:30 am, my dad made a move about a 1/4 mile away to get a look at some other country that we could not see from our vantage point. Within a few minutes he glassed up a mature buck. He let us know and we joined him. We made a quick plan and made a move on the buck to get closer. As we were trying to get into a position that we could see the buck as well as get into a stable shooting position, the buck bedded. We found a spot we could shoot from and started to relocate the buck. After some communication with my dad we found him in his bed at 520 yards. The first shot was a little high over his back which caused the buck to stand and move about 20 yards to the left. When he stopped, the second shot rang true. Heart shot, and he piled up. We made our way to the buck and were pleasantly surprised. My son was super excited and it was great to see all of the hard work pay off.
