Newt, I`am flattered that you would ask about my mule deer hunt..
I was very lucky to have taken this deer as an extreme drought had hit the state... When the time came for the shot, late in the day, this guy was 100 yds away... My FA`s model 83 in 41 mag had a Taffin handload that pushed a 210 gr. A-frame at 1647fps and there were does blocking the shot... While waiting I got complacent and of all things I shot OVER the deer... He ran straight to my right and the guide stopped him with a call at a 100 or so yds and this time I double lunged him with an A-frame that had a none stop ticket to China... he lay about 50 yds from where he was shot... Let me add that our Greg Richter has handgunned some tremendous mule deer...Thank you again for your interest........
