It's that time of year. Let's see those kills.

Messed up and didn't share the story. I spot and stalk not just night hunt. Spotted the female sleeping in a honeysuckle row. By the time I called the landowner and closed to 200 yards 3 males had settled in to snooze out of the 15+mph wind. First shot the male(close one in pic) in the head, hoping for a second shot. 2 broke north into the wind ,out of sight over snowdrifts. Female ran s.e spun around and stopped about 100 yards. Quarter away behind the shoulder. 17 rem m700 Lilja 1/9 barrel. 29gr WCD 3950 muzzle velocity. No exit either shot. 17 rocks.
