Eagle Eye Report post Posted December 1, 2006 We had the late October hunt. We put in our scouting and it payed off. We found a really good three point on our scouting trips. My brother took him opening morning. He shot that deer within like 5 minutes into shooting light. I was just starting to glass the hillsides, when i hear a shot coming from my brothers direction. Next thing i know, he's on the walkie talkie saying "he's down". He packed up the deer and headed back to camp. I should mention that deer ended up being back towards the road and he shot him about 10 yards from the road, didn't even have to do much work, lucky!. In the same morning one of our budies took out his first deer. I never saw anything the rest of the day that i wanted to take. Then that night our 4th tager showed up to see two deer in the camp already. The next morning i was seeing a lot of young bucks, like spikes and fourkys. I wanted something that at least had some what of a rack. I passed them up, but then later in the afternoon, one of my budies took his first deer as well, its a little spike. So my brother and i decided we should make a change on where we were hunting because there was a lot of shots fired in our hunting hole and i wasn't seeing anything that had a rack. So we went higher up in the mountains. We got to a vanage point and just starting glassing and then next thing we know we have movement just below us about 200 yards away. There was three bucks. Two of the bucks i was willing to take. So i set my crosshairs on the biggest of the three and the hunt was over. I'd say we had a good late October hunt. Can't wait for next year now. We all got our first coues bucks this year, two of them their first deer at all. I'd say we are pretty addicted to hunting whitetail now. I might even try and hunt them in january and pass up on kiabab in september. picture of my buck brothers buck is on the left. picture of buddies buck and my buck on the right, and oh yea.. my buddy shot his in the jaw for his first shot. He's going to need some more practice or something. Any idea on what my brothers would score? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eagle Eye Report post Posted December 2, 2006 Yea that buck is pretty small. My buck is the 3x2 in the lower photos. My brother got the 3 point in the upper photos, any idea on what he would score? He's going to get him scored when we get him back from the taxidermist. He wants to know what he has to beat for next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
