2021 Rifle Harvest Thread
Well 2021 has been quite the year. Managed my first Elk and Antelope. What a fun combination!!!
Have helped with a few mulie harvests, brother arrowed a bull elk and got his first Ram this fall as well!! And we got two great bears in May!
Whitetail season has started slow but no complaints and time to go yet

Filled my mule doe tags on November 3rd and 6th with my .243. And on Monday I shot the Whitetail buck with my .303.

That's 2 very nice trophy's right there. To take both in the same season is some accomplishment.

I should have stayed home because of my back bothering me last week, but I went anyway. That was the hardest recovery I’ve ever done, because of my back, but also one of the shortest at only about 700 yards. Good thing I tossed the dolly in before I left.

Nice Deer!
I never thought about using my Hand Truck to get my game out of the woods, great idea, and thanks! Them deer sure do get heavy when they are dead and at my age harder than ever to drag out of the woods.
Cheers - N40

It worked not too bad, by the time I got him to the cut line, gutted and got the vehicle as close as I could he was getting quite stiff so that made him stay on the hand truck better. I ended up bear hugging him and walking backwards 10 steps at a time till I got to the vehicle, so the weight was on the wheels, I wasn’t lifting too much. Maybe I’ll make a better cart for next year.

I’m not a score guy other then what I read in Big Buck but that’s one of the nicest looking whitetail deer I have ever seen. I have seen bigger but that one is so nicely proportioned with such nice mass. Very nice deer, good job!

It’s kinda a goofy looking rack with his left antler almost passing his nose. Now that I got the meat taken care of, next job is to do a skull cap mount.

It's genetic so if you see one chances are another will show up some day.

My back was so bad I was glad just to get it in the suv and home. Told the kids how to get it hanging, step by step, and we skinned it, tossed the hide and head in the freezer at work. Number one priority was getting it skinned and cooling because it took WAY too long for me to get it out of the bush. I’m going to try tanning the hide, if I cut the patch so be it. I didn’t even know that was a thing until now.
