Idaho late hunt. First time being in the unit and first time hunting during the rut. Goal was a mature buck, looked over a lot of young bucks before deciding this one would work.

Here's my 2024 Idaho buck taken on November 15th. As it got light I spotted this buck with another keeping close tabs on a doe at 600 yards. It was one of those mornings during November that seemed as though a switch had been flipped, the rut was in full swing! He took off down the hill and I lost track of him, "I might get a closer shot" I thought, I began trying to relocate him. As my head was in my glass I heard something and caught movement out of my peripheral, Buck! 10 yards underneath me, at that moment he caught my wind bounding off. I had just enough time to recognize him as I reached for my rifle and chambered a round. I gave him a Merrpp! He made that critical mistake mule deer get known for and it was over. That escalated quickly!

You know that feeling you get when you first put your hands in that buck…

Wet, miserable, and a sketchy packout over super slick deadfall. Purty scenery, though! (Wasn't quite sure what file size to upload... went from 9MB to 6MB)

Got this buck 11/25. Chased him a long time. Needle in a haystack and a very uncommon caliber of deer for where I was fortunate enough to find and harvest him.
