2010 Kansas Mule Deer Archery

This is my first ever mule deer with a bow and I'm very proud of him.

The buck was bedded down in the trees behind me in the picture. I got done with basketball practice one morning and went driving around looking for deer and I found him bedded down on my uncle's property. So I had my brother take me up the fence row a ways and drop me off. I snuck down the fence row and he stood up and looked at me broadside from about 25 yards. I had to shoot between a couple of trees, which kind of worried me, but I laid the arrow right into his lungs.

Thanks everyone!!!! He was a lot bigger than I though he was when I finally got up to him. He only ran from the trees to the spot he is in the picture, which is about 70 -80 yards or so.

Also what do you think he will possibly score? I have him at the taxidermist so I can't score him.

What an awesome first mule deer......congratulations. My first sure didn't look like that one!

As for score.....he looks like he'd net somewhere in the 130's.....probably gross in the 140's. But those are just numbers........that buck is a trophy you'll remember for a long time!

 Matt, that's a fine buck for your fifth, tenth, or twenty fifth. I hope I can be so fortunate for my first archery buck. Congratulations for sure. 10sign:

Hey thanks everyone for the compliments.....I was really excited to get him and wouldn't trade him for any other deer.
