I was worried how tough it would be with the heat and EHD die off in the area. One of my camera I was getting 1200-1600 pictures a week in August and last week i had 60 for a week. Met about an hour before sunrise and talked thru a few things and headed out about shooting time. Gimped my way along for about a 1 1/2 mile spot and stalk to get to a place we were going to sit and watch valley hillside. He was willing to take any deer that was looking for a date in the pickup box. We had 2 different groups of whitetail does and fawn we didn't push cut across the valley hoofing pretty good, to far for shots. Got to the spot to sit and watch and about 20 minutes later he says there's a deer on top. I start glassing and see a group of 5 bachelor mule deer bucks. They start working there way down and disappear behind a hill for about 10 minutes and finally pick them up working down and east of us. He passed a shot at about 250 on the hillside as they were in the shadows and couldn't get on the one in the open fast enough. SO they disappear again and about another10 minutes we got lucky and they filed out onto the valley floor about 80 yards out, he choose the one he wanted of the 2 decent ones and one shot took off the top of the heart. He went about 20 yards and over he went. 3 hours in and the hunt was complete. Would like to say good guiding but probably more luck than guiding.
