Wife’s first muley

[skipglo]

First ever, she never grew up hunting, a couple years ago she had a mule deer tag and she wanted to go big or go home and we went home lol

Well she certainly went big this time! Well done! She has a heck of challenge facing her to top this....hope she does...8 more times! " HUNTING WIFE...HAPPY LIFE" and a lot warmer sleeping bag than the rest of us!

I was going to say something similar to skipglo.

Tough one top! Blessed to get a beautiful animal as her first deer!

I am still working on getting my wife to go hunting for the first time. I keep saying maybe next year. I will show her this photo and see if it helps tip the scale. I at least got her to do Hunter safety last year.

Again, great buck and heck of a shot!

Perhaps instead of saying MAYBE NEXT YEAR to her when she asks...try HOW ABOUT THIS YEAR!

My wife shot her first mule deer today, at 842 yards with a 180hybrid, hit him in the shoulder, he was quartering away and it exited his neck, dropped him right in his tracks, he was in some brush, but I don't think he even kicked.

That's awesome!! Congratulations. Do you mind me asking what cartridge she was shooting??

Nice work! What cartridge?

It's a 7rem mag, 1:8twist, shooting 180hybrids at 3050fps, 28" proof barrel on it

You don't want that rifle. I'll trade you a vintage JC Higgins with a scored chamber in 270 win for it. You can thank me later

 

[xsn10s]

The scored/ chattered chamber is custom.
