2020 Utah archery Deer hunt.

What a hunt ! Hardest Iv ever done. No f150 on this one boys...

Miles and elevation concluded in my personal best , first velvet and to top it off with a bow.

Every time I hit the mountains of Utah I always walk away humbled, Flat out humbled.... the mountains do things to my mind that make me think Twice about my daily complaints. There isnt a middle ground, it’s either yes or no, I will or I won’t, I quit or will make the best out of this.

Matt and i found a couple real nice Typical 160 and a 170 Bucks up real high but never could get in on them.Never could bed them.

Pulled a couple stalks on a couple Bucks on the next couple days but man the rough dry country made is dam hard to get in.

Saturday I missed a shot on my third stalk, I was below this buck and it was at least a 2:1 slope and shot right over his back.
Sunday was uneventful With a lot of time behind the glass. Monday came and my buddy had to take care of some personal Business so I was solo. I Spotted 4 bucks in a batcher group and now you will have to tune in for the shot and how it went down on the Utah Recap podcast for the details!F2B49DAC-B448-4B77-9FAC-9C976D701966.jpeg049A16F4-EE5E-40C7-8CC7-8114A914EC7A.jpegCC5C5A7C-963E-4E71-BA5D-4A4AD14187CE.jpeg1CF4C9EB-44A3-4268-BA93-D70A8A446325.jpeg7B1D0E8F-CA10-462F-899C-4010F58CEE27.jpeg5CAD393C-C849-4417-AF66-A3E0BF883DFC.jpeg
