RG2009ArcheryWhite-tailSGRcopy.jpg

Nov. 24, 2009 - I walked out the shop-door at 2:50 PM, and in a steady rain, but light Easterly breeze, headed for the timber - late again! Just one short hour later, I had already 'walked' the LoneWolf climber up a [new] tree, arrowed this white-tail, and was descending toward terra firma to...

RGs 2009 archery white-tail

Rain, 42 deg. F, wind NE at 12 mph . . . this buck approached from dead east, to 15 yards, where upon, I loosed a CarbonExpress shaft, headed by a NAP Spitfire [125 Gr.] and guided by Wild Turkey fletch from Hope Carleton - the arrow passed through both lungs and stuck in the ground. The buck bolted...

RG's 2009 Pronghorn.

And, then, there are pronghorns . . . Following ‘tagging-out’ on mule deer, we began looking over the pronghorn (‘goat’) population – we invested a full six days glassing the numerous, perplexing critters, which due to the unseasonably COLD weather, were bunched-up as if it were the dead of a snowy winter...

Another view of RG's 2009 mule deer buck.

Matt snapped this pic of yours truly . . . BIG MIKE stayed off in the distance, apparently, pleased to have converted me to his way of thinking. ;) Despite the lack of tine-length, this buck sports nice mass and a decent inside spread: B&C gross is 148+ a few 8Ths. Even looking at myself, it appears...

Wyo2009 015RG'sMuleDeer.jpgManCopy.jpg

The clock rolls back to our 'opening day' - Oct.5,2009 (actually, in our hunt-area, the fifth day of the open season) - a blustery, mostly to partly cloudy affair. A cold rain had fallen for most of the previous day, and the way-in, pulling a trailor loaded with a pair of ATVs, proved somewhat...

Joe's 2009 mule deer

Joe, with his 2009 Wyoming mule deer. He made a nice 150 yard shot: once again, his custom .270WSM proved adequate for mule deer - the Barnes 110 Gr. TTSX, exited the muzzle at nearly 3500 FPS, slowed slightly, before reaching the deer, then passed right on through, dropping this buck pretty much in...

Matt's first mule deer: Oct, 2009

Here's a pic of son-in-law, Matt, following a GREAT walk-about (hunt) for mule deer, which took place at THE RANCH, where we were privileged, once again, to roam for the better part of two weeks. During the previous days, Matt had opted to pass on several smaller bucks and one, which was probably...

Rg's 09 Late Muzzle-Loader white-tail.

Here, the 2009 Late Muzzle-Loader Season, 'shoulda been' an 8-point (the right brow-tine was broken off) was posed with the faithful White M-loader - in talking me into trading some bullets for this rifle, Dan was correct: it's a real joy to shoot anf hunt with! :)

RG's 2009 Late Season (Muzzle-Loader) white-tail

This view is of the 09 Muzzle-Loader white-tail, prior to touching him. Following a 20 Yd. heart-shot, he managed to run about 50 Yd. before expiring as shown here. The load consisted of a 110 Gr. [equivalent] charge of Hogdon Tripple-7, a Remington 209 M-L primer, and a 420 Gr. White Sabot HPBT slug...

Here's the buck on the left (as viewed) - 2003 GUMMER

From the viewed perspective, here's the left-hand GUMMER - NE Wyoming, 2003 - this one fell to another 132 GR. BIB FB, which exited the muzzle of the .300WSM at something over 3400 FPS. The distance was 268 Yd. - it was the first time I used a range-finder, but following the shot - I didn't make...
