I?m out in Nebraska doing some ML whitetail doe hunting.
Spent yesterday poking around some riverbottom but not too much action.

This morning I went to another place that I was told about.
Never been there before so I hiked in and checked it out.

I made a loop thru, saw some deer at a distance, so I found a place to make a ground blind for a future hunt.

I figured the deer movement was over for the morning so started the 1 mi hike back to the truck

Hadn?t gone very far when I saw some deer headed my way.
Luckily I was on a slight rise so I had a good vantage point

There was about 8-10 deer moving thru!
I took off my pack and used it for a rest.

A doe stopped and looked and I let her have it.

160yds - 370gr maxi ball did it?s job


 
Since I was about a mile from the truck, there was no way in hell I was gonna drag her so the gutless method meets Nebraska

 
As I mentioned in another thread, I recently got a Kuiu Icon 1850 pack.

Now was the time to get it test!

Game bags (pillow cases) ready!
 
I split the quarters and loose meat into 2 bags

Separated my Icon and prepared to load the meat
 
I have another doe tag so I?ll hunt tonight and tomorrow morning before I head home
 
That was quick!  :upthumb:
Nice shooting, Brad! That?ll definitely be tasty. 


 
This morning was quiet, a trace of snow and perfect wind.
But the deer never showed...


Here ends my 2017 big game hunting
