Those were mule deer and while trophies ; we don’t have tags for this area. Yesterdays hunt was more of same. Found a bull and bedded him (wind prevented any stalk ). Got within 200 yards at magic hour and started calling. He took his cow and moved away from us into the forestry and just like that 8 days of hard hunting was over.
Kevin went back in alone this morning and snuck into a heard and he bull at 52 yards at full draw and the bull stopped behind bush and then turned me walked away , keeping brush between him until he was at 100 yards.
Lots miles and action this year, just couldn’t get them to respond to calls like years in the past.

Bring Bobby Moseley back with you to Athabasca. I know he's been itching to get back to the cold. And speaking of itching, he's still got a score to settle with a certain motel owner.
