First a unreal moose and now a insane whitetail! Talk about setting the standard for a amazing hunting season.
What did you do to call his doe out? In 212 im not even seeing them chasing yet

It's a small stick I used to keep his head out of the snow.

That’s the kind of deer most of us flat landers only ever get to dream about seeing. Never mind even getting one. What a great season. Congratulations

I set up and doe bleated followed by a series of tending grunts. The doe bleated back immediately and after a couple of more tending buck grunts he started grunting and she came right in to me. He followed in her tracks and that was his demise😊

Thanks everyone for your kind words! I really do feel blessed with the success I am having this year. It has been a season full of emotional highs and lows and memories I will cherish forever. I love it when goals are met and targets are finally achieved. I am already thinking of next year's big game season and scheming on places to check out and animals I am on the watch for. Hunting is a habit forming need!

Great job and GREAT season Norm, well earned and deserved, as I know the time you put in. When you get him all cleaned up I would love to come and take a look at him.

Thanks! I have had seasons where I have killed a big elk or big moose or decent deer, but haven't killed 2 big animals in the same season before. I have been thinking of retiring, but then I always get thinking about next season's hunt, lol. I guess I'm not done yet!
