Hunter Henninger with his 2008 Pilot Rock Buck
I do have to share the story that I got from Brian Henninger after his 2008 Oregon Deer Hunt with his son Hunter in the Pilot Rock area of Oregon.
Brian had set this hunt up for Hunter a couple of years back for Oregon Deer in 2008. Hunter has taken big game before in Oregon and Texas before, proving his capabilities to shoot on the run.
I do love it when a father is able to teach their son or daughter to be able to shoot instinctive and make a great shot at a running animal. “Blink”
It was no different on this hunt for Hunter, he and his dad had spotted the deer from a distance and made a stalk on the buck, only to have him jump out of the draw on a dead run. As you can see from the picture Hunter made the running shot and put the dandy buck down. I can only wait to see Hunter take his first elk, which will most likely be in 2009.
Brian rounded up take a buck later in the same area. From what I understand that these bucks were the best of the lot.
Deer numbers have been down in the area from the information I have gather from other hunters this year.
Great Shot and Hunt – Hunter Henninger.
