I figured you were all bored with all of the huge bucks pictured(not really), so I thought I'd give a regular meat on the table type story Smiler

It was the last day of MLer season Sunday evening and with a pocket full of tags to fill I decided to go and give it one more chance. Usually only night movement this late in the game, but as luck would have it a few old doe decided they wanted to stir.

Just before last light 3 large doe came out around 180yds and fed their way torward me. After a while they ventured off into the thickets and I was certain the season was over. As I gathered my gear I spotted some movement at around 100 yards and sure enough, the 3 doe were coming back into view. I lined up my Knight and let it roar. There was a definite thud and when the smoke cleared the white belly was a nice sight to see.

Load was 2 777 pellets under a 250 SST, range 98 yards. Bang flop!

Nice way to end it with a bang(and alittle smoke Wink ) at the last minute.

Ya'll have a good one,

Good shooting! It's always nice to fill a freezer when the clock is down to the last few minutes. thumb

Nice final minutes hunt Reloader. Always good to read a successful late season hunting story, up here like where you are they are pretty darn nocturnal by the end of season. Enjoy them loins.......
