A friend called me this morning to help track his first deer, took us 2 hrs to find him.

 

 

Nice, tell him congrats. He will always remember his first.

  Some people been hunting a long time and never took a rack that nice. Congratulations to him!   jj

Nice buck. Congrats. Catt, it's good you found this one. 2yrs ago my nephew shot one just before dark. We looked for him with flashlights but couldn't find him. We picked up the search the next morning at daybreak, and found the deer half ripped apart by coyotes. Glad you guys found him

Nice buck.  Good job on the recovery. ?

Thats an awesome first buck!  Congrats.

Heck of a first buck! Congrats to him. 

Nice first kill

Been deer hunting for well over 40 yrs and nothing bothered me more than crippling one.

Glad to hear you and your friend recovered such a majestic animal. 

Nice...now on to making some pickled heart.....yum

Backstrap son !!!

Starting with a buck like that makes the curve pretty steep to improve on! Great buck.

Aint that the truth.  The first season I ever went turkey hunting I folded up a big tom an hour into the hunt.  And I took 5 days off to hunt too.  I thought "this is way too easy."  In the following 15 years I haven't gotten another one yet on the first day I hunted them lol
