SO I HUNT

Been home a while now and thought I would add my hunt to this GREAT SITE!! I drove up a couple of days early to see family and enjoy the old storys of the family get togethers before going on the hunt. The weather was changing for the good (snow and cold) First afternoon was a good start we had a young boy with us that had a tag and shot a great 3x4 and about 45 minutes later had great 4x4 down and after gutting and loading the deer in the truck it was time to make it back to the cabin. The following morning we had a little wind and snow going on and we came across the buck I ended up shooting, spotted him at 1200 yards with about 7 does so we made our plan of attack. We had two ridges to go and with 2 inches of snow falling down came natural for me ( couldn't see the small rocks )going straight up was bad enough but the going down was h...! Finally got to 500 yrds and got setup for the shot by the time he gave me a shot he was 547 yards. ( love the 270 wsm ) It took 3 of us almost 3.5 hrs to get him back to the truck.

Nice bull buddy. Didn't whitetail this year, I was in Utah hunting Muleys and shot a ok buck. Incase you can't think who I am ( stacy H.)

What hunt and write up!!! Most of all great BUCK! Thanks for sharing

Nice bucks and story... Thanks for sharing

Great looking buck! Thanks for sharing

I have 6x leupold m8 on a 243 love it and also 4.5 x 14-3x leupold bc on 7mm and also a 3x12 Monarch bc on my 270 wsm and love the vari. scope as well. It comes down to what your main goal is, shooting longer distances go with the vari. powers and at least up to 12 power. If you are shooting out to say 350 yards than the 6 power is a good choice. Good luck in your quest.....

270 WSM is the way to go! I had a 7 WSM and it was ok, but the 270 wsm will shoot flatter and more accur. hands down. I reloaded for both and just happier with the 270 wsm. What I did was take the 7 wsm and made it into a 270 wsm. ( 26" doug. mid. barrel, mod.70 action, with a lite weight sheep hunt stock). Good luck on your quest

Nice buck... What is your set-up that you are shooting?

A gift for the wife and he gave me the best price and even a coffee cup to boot:) Thanks Joel!!!!!!! Also Doug is a great person to deal with, bought all my Leicas with Camera Land as well and will buy again when the time comes!!! Regards Stacy

Well I'm not much for writing so bare with me:) It all started on Monday 8th, the hike in and set up for glassing like I had done since opening day of the hunt, but today I had with me CramerHunts with me and for par he made it there before I had and was already glassing up deer before I was set up ( yes I am not fast at going up as I am at going down steep knobs ). So when I get set up I ask what are you seeing and he said does and a spike. So I start glassing back in a spot where we have been seeing bucks and I had made a stock into the day before but couldn't find the buck I was looking for and was hoping to glass up this morning? As I start glassing I find three bucks and tell CramerHunts three bucks which now he is glassing in the same spot has me and watching these buck spare. Funny thing about the sparing was there was a big 2 point and what we called the meidum three point and a small three point, well the bigger three and the big two started sparing and the little three would join in to make it a three sum spare ( never seen this happen and it was great to experince what we were watching) Well after watching this for about 15 minutes I looked over to CramerHunts and told him I wanted to take the big two point ( needed to be done for the gene pool right ) anyways we decide to glass them until they bed down ( 2 candles and 3 hours later they finally bed down, yes I said candles cramerhunts was on the phone with his wife as we watched the bucks do their thing and she sells candles so I had to get my order in for the up coming holidays ) Now since they bedded down the game was on! I got all my gear on and on my way up and down I went until I was set up for the shot. It was great to sit there and watch this buck lay in his bed @ 230 yards away. This area doesn't get cell service in most areas we hunt, but it just happened that we were able to use it this time so we were texting back and forth instead of using radios. Well after about 15 minutes of watch and waiting CramerHunts texted to let me know that he was going higher to glass another area and I had replied K back and than the buck stood the same momment I sat the phone down so I aimmed and shot------------------------------- @ the same time that I'm aiming cramerhunts is texting me he is up and before he could send the buck was down so in the same text it read bucks up. Great shot.. What a text book stock and shot Big thanks to my hunting partners and a bigger thanks to CramerHunts not just for helping out on this deer but for everything you have done! You are a true friend!

Hope everyone has a great feast and save travels too!!!!! Good luck to all the late Nov. deer hunters too!
