Guess I'll be the first...super excited...my biggest deer

[ANTLERS]

My gun season ended at 7:15. I barely had enough time to settle in, heard him making a scrap inside some mountain laurel then stepped out onto a trail and made a fateful turn towards me.

Nailed this big doe 7:45 this morning in the cold n wind .... Came in with three other doe's behind me .... Took the top section of my climber out ( summit open shot, no rail) n had a nice comfy seat at the base of the tree , don't know why I never did that years ago .... Spotted her early n slipped off the seat n propped the gun up on the climber seat n she came into the scope n bang , dropped like a sack a potatoes 70 ish yds out ... Now lookin for that buck who did me wrong during bow ....

Another successful year at Camp-Hole-in-the-Wall in West Almond, Allegany county. Shot a spiker and a doe, my buddy Matt killed an 8-pointer WAYYYY back at the top of the mountain. 2 other guys left before it got good, shame on them.

I was asked to help my friend learn to hunt , after 3 years of close calls and some small game she was able to connect on a beautiful 10 pt opening day, she wanted to learn to gut it herself.as well so with some instruction she dove right in!!!

[Five Seasons]

I got this 7 pointer in 4G opening day 15 minutes into legal shooting time. 

[The_Real_TCIII]

I shot this buck six minutes or so after into the opener. He came in chasing a doe with another deer I never got a good look atThats an iPhone timer selfie, not bad! Took me several tries if anyone was watching they're still laughing

[Skillet]

Hunting in Churchville (8G), this morning. She came in with a huge doe, but they knew something was wrong, & they were really alert. They were about to bolt, so I took the first chance I had. 15yards. Thankful to have her.

The doe on the left is the one i got this am, My buddy and i decided too just stand around in the woods this am, We figured that people would start pushing the deer and sure enough, after 20 mins of just standing there shooting the bull, Four doe ran into the wood lot, I took aim with my 30-30 and dropped her in her tracks, 

 

The deer on the right is my buddies deer, He asked if he could bring his daughter with him to hunt last night, so i threw a ground blind up in the middle of a large hay field and this bb comes out with a smaller one, At the time he didnt realize it was a bb, but it doesnt really matter, His daughter was happy and seeing as he is injured and cant walk right now, And i didnt have to drag the deer very far, I didnt mind him shooting it, His daughter cant wait till she is old enough to hunt, That is what its about for me, Passing down the tradition,  Sorry for the pick up pics but in hurry to get to the butcher and then home to get ready for dinner,

Wednesday 11-25. Not a beast of a buck by any means but respectable size to his body. Shot him seconds after looking at a back tag my Pop gave me for good luck to put in my tag holder. 25 yards with muzzle loader. Six point

11-25. Had dressed out buck, dragged him below ladder stand, poured a cup of coffee from thermos and shot her within 45 minutes of buck. 130 yards with muzzle loader. Went about 20 yards. Big doe

[mlammerhirt]

Was fortunate enough to take these two opening morning about 5 minutes apart..he came busting in behind me running three does in circles...once I repositioned my rifle he took off downhill after one doe...the second doe wandered behind some tress and headed down hill as well leaving the big girl I was able to take locked up at about 35-40 yards...I let the .30-.06 bark and she dropped within 20 yards after I caught lung-top of heart-lung.

So I decided to call my wife and let her know we had a deer down, and low and behold I look down hill and the buck is peaking at me from behind a tree at about 120 yards....I told my wife I had to go and out the phone down, carefully took aim and drilled him with a liver-lung-lung shot quartering away...he was down 40 yards later and my freezer was instantly full!!

Great memories and a great opening day spent at camp in 9p.

[WNYBuckHunter]

My opening day double. Took these two out of 9 does that walked out into our food plot at 8am. Let my son track the big doe 150 yards to where she piled up in the brush.

I was fortunate enough to take this double drop tine 7 pointer on Nov. 23. Shot him at 7:23 on my place in Delaware county.

[NYBowhunter]

Opening morning 6 pointer, shot around 7:20. Otsego county. Like a twin to the buck i got with the crossbow couple weeks earlier.

[Yotehntr]

Opening morning 8pt.  Was chasing does behind some blowdowns before he followed one out about 120yrds heading toward the swamp.  This was a buck I had never had on camera until i checked them that day he was on both from the week prior.
