South AB WT buck down :)
First off..... Pics to follow later tonight, cant upload pics from work 
My morning started off by heading to some areas to glass where I have permission and have seen deer in the past. With no luck though. Seen a few WT does and an alright mulie buck. So my morning deer hunt was a bust. Time to change gears and go run some ditches with the dog 
Wouldnt you know it while heading to one of my favorite haunts, I noticed to 2 deer bedded pretty far in a field. Put the binos up and confimed one was a buck for sure! Dug out the lanowners map, and contacted them. Turns out the husband was in town and the wife wanted me to talk to him before I went out there. I glassed some more and patiently waited out the clock. Roughly 2 hours went by with out the deer moving at all, and when I finally made contact with the gentleman. After a drive to the other side of the feild via road. I made a relativly short stalk on foot then finished up crawling on hands and knees till I could see him. Mark another kill for the .243
So far my biggest southern deer to date and a nice 5X5 to boot. Shoulda have pics up around midnight for those of you who are interested

great buck. that must have been a long wait for the phone call for permission. congrats.
as a side note... my brother and i had quite the argument (not settled yet) as to whether that would be a 5x5 or 4x4. he says in B.C. the first points (or eye gaurds) dont count.
personally, i say it's a 5x5.

With all the private land I hunt, and the land iv lost access to due to people and there idiocy. Really makes a guy mad. Seriously not very often I dont get ahold of a landowner. And not very often I get turned down. But when I do its because they like there wildlife, they dont allow hunters, they have there personal quota of hunters allowed, or I get the ol "we used to BUT last year (or years past) some idiots shot up, cut fences, tired of tresspassers ect"
I miss the days of hunting back home with nothing but crown land, But private has offered some of the best hunting opportunities iv had.

They are not a deduction on mulies unless theres only one. With both they are a very welcome addition to the net score.
