Annual Bow Hunt

"Last week I did my annual bow hunt in Kansas for big free range White Tail deer. The weather was very cold (down to 18, plus wind chill which put it below zero) for 3 days of a 6 day hunt. It was hard to stay warm, as with bow hunting you are sitting in a tree stand for a long period of time. Attached is a buck I just shot on the 4th day of the hunt with bow and 125 grain GrizzlyStik Samurai. It scored 157 4/8th SCI. They thought that he weighed about 300 pounds. I have also attached a photo of another buck that I shot with bow in 10/07 at the same tree stand back in 10/2007 that also scored 157 4/8th. Amazing, the same score. This year’s buck was the son of the buck from 2007. You can tell by the antler structure. He only went 47 yards from point of impact. There were 14 bow hunters in camp and we shot and recovered 8 bucks, and wounded one. All shot with bow/arrow. It has really been cold in MT. Last week down at -20 degrees plus wind chill factor. It Finally has warmed up to about 30 this AM. I will end the Montana big game hunting season hunting for elk and deer with bow at the Montana Mexican John Ranch, LLC." Steve Coale
