Thanks!

Yesterday paid off again. I wanted to sit on a highseat overlooking a nice big meadow...however I never got there as this yearling already stood in front of the seat. As the grass was not too high i managed to crawl in to about 100m and take him in prone position:

I gutted him and took him to the chiller but it was only about 20:30 then, so I decided I would try my luck on a seat next to some mirabelle and apple trees where the pigs always roam this time of the year. I heard pigs in the reeds all around me the whole time, however this buck showed up first. No five minutes later and this small sow showed up. I could see that she was not lactating and took her as soon as she turned broadside.

Edit: Moosehunter, look at the side they lay on...just for you buddy ;)

Smokes, that's one lucky evening! Waidmannsheil & well done. Taking animals in quick succession demands some skill and discipline.

Awesome pics guys. Still almost 2 months to wait still here. Not sure how much I'll be able to make it out while and college. Hopefully more that I should :lol:

I had do read that thrice. I always read "Not sure how much I'll be able to make out while at college" and thought "Whoooot? If you don't make it there, you won't make it anywhere"
:lol: :lol: :lol:

In any case, I wish you'll get to do plenty of both (but don't let the ladies keep you from hunting -the ones that do aren't worth it in the long run, I tell you!)

I can see how it's easy to misread that! I already learned that lesson. I had a girlfriend once in high school. That lasted for about 3 weeks and then deer season started. She thought I was going to skip the rut to go to the movies. Figured out she wasn't the one pretty quickly :lol:

I've been doing lots of scouting of public land in the area. I've heard deer numbers are way down due to wolves. I'll have to see what I can find. Looking forward to hunting and learning some new country.

It never stops to amaze me how far away from reality some people are :lol:

Depends on who's in rut! Sometimes it's worth watching a movie first. :D
