Nice buck! The way that played out is a unicorn opener

I don’t even expect to get a buck once rifle starts. I usually push for others. That my first rifle buck in 17 years.

Always hoping for a real whopper but given the circumstances I couldn't pass on either one. My goal for the last few years has been to tag a nice mule deer, but living in whitetail country I only get a handful of days to chase muleys each year. This year I plan on dedicating some more time and hopefully come across a big dark horned ghost.

My son and I tagged out opening morning of firearms season in northwest Indiana.

View attachment 629183passed on this guy in the AM and harvested him in the afternoon. Ran out of days and needed to fill my tag.

6.8 western 175gr at 150yrds. Solid broadside should crease pass through. Scary part was we could not locate a blood trail. Found him in the creek and try to back track his route after the shot. Zero blood, what the heck!
