Picture of My First Missouri Whitetail Buck Deer of 2007
Posted by Darrell under: Noteworthy Pictures; Hunting Stories .
On Saturday morning I took my first whitetail buck of 2007. I hope it isn’t my last! He is a pretty 8 point. He came by the stand I was hunting in hot pursuit of a doe that was just about 30 yards in front of him. He was moving at a pretty decent clip, so I whistled to get him to stop.
He stopped and gave me a great broadside shot at about 45 yards. I shot him with my Remington 710 30.06. It is amazing that I’ve been bow hunting a lot for the past two weeks and haven’t had a shot at a buck and then on opening morning of rifle season I get a shot opportunity that I could have easily made with a bow!
I’m not complaining! It is just amazing that you never can even guess what might happen while you are hunting. So, anyway, I took this buck on Saturday morning and then on Sunday morning got to see a black bear. How could you ask for anything more?

Congratulations! Great buck! You’ve had quite a good fall now with your birds and your buck! How do you like the 710?

Thanks for the congrats!
Bryan, I really like my 710. It shoots great and is inexpensive (I paid $275 for it complete with a bushnell scope at a local gun show) so I don’t spend any time worrying about it. I’d prefer less trigger pull, but I shoot it fine the way it came stock. After sighting it in after buying it several years ago, I’ve never even had to adjust the scope and I can assure you that I’ve put it through the ringer. I shoot it a few times before season to make sure it is on (and it has been every single year) and then clean it once after the season. It is a simple, no nonsense, no frills, great shooting gun which I’m extremely happy with.

Thanks all! Phil, you get 1 buck tag for firearms season and you can buy as many doe tags as you like at $7 each. You also get 2 buck tags for archery season, with the caveat that only one can be used prior to firearms season. So, you have the opportunity (or potential) to tag up to 3 bucks per year!

[…] I took a nice 8 point buck on day one. It turns out that if I had passed him or missed him, I’d have been SOL. I wouldn’t […]

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
