I was lucky enough this morning to take a decent 8 pt with my 35 yr old hawken rifle. First time I’ve used it in 4 or 5 yrs. I also got to use my new hitch mount hoist system. Worked great once I winched the buck up about 30 yards of near bluff terrain. [img:left] [/img] [img:left] [/img]

Very nice buck and a beautiful rifle too.

Nice! I’m carrying my smoke pole tomorrow. Hope to cause a big smoke cloud Hah! I had forgotten about the cloud and when I shot I couldn’t see a thing then he came running past me and I could see the blood out the exit side. I knew he wasn’t running far but he ran straight downhill.

Way to go TR! Nice buck done “the hard way.” You look like a mountain man in that photo.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I’m proud of the first buck I ever got with a muzzle loader. I’ve wanted a new modern one but can’t justify the cost for a couple of days a year. So far I have hunted 3 mornings and 3 evenings all year and got a wide 6 pt with my bow and a decent 8 with my muzzle loader so I am going to enjoy scouting for a mature buck and see if I can connect with one. But the does had better watch out. 😜

Congrats on a very nice deer, and the cool thing is that you killed him with a genuine primitive weapon.
