Weather was hot (!!) for this time of year. Highs in he upper 60's and lows in 30's and even 40's a time or two.
Shot this guy at 140 yds...first deer with my 30-06 I got earlier this year from Darrell Holland. Used a Nosler 180 BT and put it in the high shoulder at 140 yds...bullet was in off-side shoulder and was recovered. Legs went out from under him and his vitals were jelly.
Kansas is something else...5 guys in camp, 4 tagged out with one guy killing a 179" gross. A couple of 140 class deer in addition. Mine was 155" gross and weighed 225 on the hoof.
Biggest buck I have ever seen in the woods and I shot him with 7 minutes left before last shoot time. Kansas should be on any whitetail hunter's bucket list.
