A successful late afternoon session for harvesting antlerless white-tailed deer during the late-firearm deer hunting season in the River Antlerless Management Unit. I took a nice, healthy, adult doe. I saw a lot of deer, enjoyed the hunt with the landowner and thought of my dad on his birthday. I, Greg Wagner, am very grateful!
