We went to North Eastern Nevada were my Wife and I grew up and most of our family still lives. We had a blast.
We had seen Deer with Bigger horns that had better mass. We just couldn't get to a good shooting position to take one.
The day she took this one. We got to the hills right at light and started spotting Deer immediately. My Brother who has eyes like a hawk and can spot a knat showing it's ass at a thousand yards, spots a Deer at about 3 miles and says it's a nice one. I didn't think it was but the crew decided that they were going after it. (Everyone in this pic except for myself and my Sister In Law on the left went on the stalk)
I told them I would stay back and keep an eye on the Deer to make sure he didn't run off.
Secretly I knew what was going to happen she did to. My wife was going on a Death March with these guys. After stalking for 4 hr's they get up there and realized the Deer was a small 3 point and She turned it down. By the time she made it back to the truck she was wanting to die.
We took off road hunting to some spots my brother wanted to check out. 3 hr's later this Buck is standing two hundred yards off the side of the road and she made a good shot to get it. It was a 4 point and the width measured 27 5/8.
We were close to 8000 foot elevation. I had asked my brother if he thought we were getting to high and he told me no. After the Deer was down the smart ass asked me if I thought we were getting to high. I gave him the standard F% reply.
