Successful MN hunt

[MeanMachine]

I took a trip out to Duluth Minnesota last week to connect with some folks I work with remotely on a daily basis and to see some friends. Thought I would take advantage of the first week of gun season and burn a day of vacation while I was there. Knowing I only had 1 day to hunt I was going to make the most of it and sit all day in hopes of seeing a nice buck. Saw a doe around 8am and after that it was dead. I had shot a decent 8pt in the same location last year so I had high hopes of seeing another buck. 1pm hit and this buck hit the same opening as the one last year. I shot him with my 7mag and dropped him in his tracks. The cool part was it was the same opening I had shot the deer the previous year. It was great to be able to connect on a nice buck with a small window to hunt and I'm already looking forward to next year.

Hopefully I can get a shot at another one this weekend! Good luck to everyone on opener! I'm looking forward to reading some great stories.

NY state needs to just go ahead and open the whole state for rifle. With modern day sabot slugs and and muzzle loaders that we have today they shoot nearly as far as rifles do any way. Nice deer and quick hunt congrats MeanMachine
