A Hunt at Timberline 
(Continued from page 544) 
deer had just passed. I followed the 
track as silently as a cougar, my eyes 
everywhere searching for the familiar 
pair of large ears or the disappearing 
white rump. The deer had milled 
around and gone back and forth so I 
had a hard job to keep on his trail. 
T last I lost his tracks altogether, 
so I made a wide circle and pres- 
ently came across the tracks again, so 
I cautiously followed them. They were 
so fresh that the few flakes of snow 
that were falling were melted in the 
tracks. I stalked silently along when 
all at once I heard thump-thump- 
thump of a deer just the other side 
of a little knoll to my right. The deer 
was going in the direction of the creek 
which was only about fifty yards away, 
so I ran through the trees to the high 
bank above the creek. There was a 
little flat on this side and as I reached 
the edge of the timber I saw the deer 
—a big blacktail—about eight yards 
away just at the foot of the hill, and 
that fellow was surely going some. He 
was going straight away from me so 
I just had his back view, but I threw 
up my rifle and shot. I saw him flinch 
a little then turn and start for the 
creek. 
HIS flat was covered with big 
fallen logs and brush, a few stand- 
ing big trees and a few jack pine. I 
pumped the rifle and as he was pass- 
ing a bunch of trees I shot again, this

time he slowed up a little. I worked 
another shell into the chamber and 
when he came into view I drew a bead 
on him and as soon as he left the 
ground in a leap I shot and he fell. 
This last shot was at about one hun- 
dred and fifty yards. 
I made my way down to where he 
fell, but I couldn’t find him as the 
brush was so thick and the ground 
covered with dead limbs and logs. I 
could not even find his tracks, so I 
went batk to the slope he had come 
down. There I picked up his tracks 
and was able to follow them. I was 
getting near to where he fell when I 
looked up with a start as I heard the 
thump-thump-thump of a deer on the 
jump. I just saw a flash of the buck 
as he disappeared in the trees along- 
side of the creeck. I ran to an open 
spot on the bank just in time to see 
the buck across the creek heading for 
the timber; about three more jumps 
and he would be out of sight. 
E was over a hundred yards away, 
too, but the instant I saw him I 
threw up my little carbine, took a 
quick aim and shot. At the report of 
the rifle the big fellow crumbled and 
fell, then rolled over on his back, all 
four legs in the air. Such a shot gives 
the hunter his greatest thrill. I made 
my way over to him, and he was a big 
deer. I never killed one as large as 
this fellow. I stuck and bled him and 
then examined him to find where those 
four shots had gone. The first, as he 
was going straight from me, had cut 
him between the hind hams just pene- 
trating the skin a little on the inside 
of each hind leg. The second shot had 
got through the ribs, but had not 
touched a vital spot. The third shot 
went in behind the left shoulder and 
came out a little farther back on the 
right side; that was the shot that 
dropped him the first time. The fourth 
and last shot, as he was running from 
me, had struck him right on the base 
of the spine and tore it for nearly a 
foot which paralyzed him. The bone 
was ground up like so much sand 
where the soft nose did its deadly 
work. I put a rope around his neck, 
then over the branch of a nearby tree 
and tried to raise him up in order to 
dress him, but I could not even lift 
the front quarters off the ground. 
HAVE killed deer that dressed one 
hundred and a quarter and I have 
lifted them up into a tree without any 
effort at all. But this big fellow I 
had to dress where he fell. I then put 
some brush on the ground and rolled 
him onto it, and took the liver and 
heart, my special dish at this time of 
the year. I started back to the cabin 
about three miles distant and reaching 
it within four hours of the time I had
