2010 Deer Hunting

I just finished up with the 2010 Gun Deer Season in Wisconsin. I flew home from Arizona to surprise my father and hunt for a few days. Somehow everyone else knew but him and it was quite the surprise for him the Friday on the eve of opening day.

Hunting was average this year. I saw lots of deer and several different bucks but nothing huge. Tuesday afternoon I saw approximately 25 deer! For the group, the hunt was fairly successful. Two big eights and lots of deer; no booners but still nice bucks. I ended up shooting a smaller seven point buck that one of our neighbors gut shot. I put him out of his misery.

The four or five days I spent hunting makes me want to get back for bowhunting in the rut next year or maybe get a tag for elk or deer in Arizona now... Here are some of the photos:
9 Point Buck


Here is a picture of the buck my father shot in Buffalo County Wisconsin this year.

Seven Point Buck


I shot him on Sunday about 30 minutes after Chris shot his buck. He got spooked out of the pines and my mom saw "a buck" from the house.(I was in the stand you can see from the house by the river). I had the gun ready, saw he was just a little guy and put the gun down. I noticed he was running a little weird and saw a gun shot wound to his chest/guts with my binoculars. I grabbed the gun again and shot him at about 100 yards with him at a trot. He dropped right here rather than a slow death over the next few days/weeks.
