Title: First buck on the ground with pics
Post by: mjc on October 29, 2007, 09:58:00 AM
Saturday morning I was hunting a big section of woods bordering a old clear cut that is all grown up, It was cool the leaves were a little damp the wind was right, the perfect morning to still hunt,I was just easing along really slow into the wind when I saw a little doe come out about 30 yds away. While I was waiting to see if she would give me a shot, I caught a little movement from the right looked over and here comes this guy down a ridge, it seemed it took forever but he finally worked his way down to me and gave me a 10 yd shot. It was one of those shots you just lay in bed and dream about, he ran about 75 yds and piled up. I have killed alot bigger bucks but I cant remember any of them being any more exciting.This is my first one on the ground and I think I may be doing alot more still hunting and less sitting in a tree. He is a little 6 point and that is one of my boys holding his horns. thanks for reading.

It just doesn't get any better than that. "One on one, and fairly done."
A deer to be proud of.

Thanks everybody, I found one more pic that shows the hit, not quite as close to the shoulder as is ideal, but got the lungs.
