First Tethrd Deer - First Pistol Deer!

[jryser]

I got my first pistol deer tonight out of my Mantis! I was very glad to be in the saddle because the deer came in DOWNwind. I was able to slip around undetected and put a 38 yard shot through the heart with my Desert Eagle!!

Pretty pumped as I’ve wanted to do that with the DE for a LONG time! What a great night! I was solo so I couldn’t pose with my Tethrd gear but G2 and The Hunting Public will vouch for me.

Man that’s awesome! Don’t even get to use the new pup to help track.....

That is great work! I'm still trying to achieve the goal of that first pistol deer. Congrats. As a Baby Eagle .45 owner I gotta say I love the DE.

Good for you.

I remember my first pistol deer. LOL. I walked out the back foot of my friends house. (I was literally hunting his back yard. I had my Taurus 357) Anyway, I shot a 3 point and a doe walking back to the stand.

Then a few more like that.

Congratulations on accomplishing a pistol kill. First deer with any weapons are always memorable. Pistols are definitely not as common as rifles, primitive weapons or archery. I can remember my pistol kills in Texas but have never accomplished the same in my home state of Louisiana. I hope the saddle will enable me to comfortably close that gap.

I've kilt hogs with my .357, but never a deer. Congrats!

Surprised more saddleers aren't pistoleros. They go hand in hand. A kenai chest rig and a saddle are about as ultralight as you can get. Ridiculously easy to draw and shoot.

That's awesome! I've been carrying my 10mm for two years now and have yet to draw blood. So exciting and saddles seem like they were made for pistol hunting

My FIL shot a doe with a blackpowder pistol a couple seasons ago. That was pretty cool. Congrats on the pistol deer!
