Title: South Georgia Buck
Post by: Nole on December 06, 2010, 05:05:00 PM

I thought that I would share with you guys a buck that I killed yesterday morning.  He is my best buck that I have taken with traditional equipment and I am real proud of him.  I shot him at 10 yards and he ran approximately 50 yards and fell within sight.

Thanks guys for the responses.  Rolltidehunter - I got in my stand just after first light only because this was the first time I had hunted this spot all year and had not bright eyed the trail in and I did not want to fumble all over the place.  I pulled up my bow and got settled then made a few short grunts with my call and he came running in.  He stopped at 20 yards out looking for the buck and I let him walk up to 10 yards for the best shot which also gave me the best opportunity to draw my bow because he got behind a tree and I was able to draw.  That time frame from 20 to 10 yards seemed like an eternity with my heart pounding and up in my throat.

JGoematt - I am shooting a Morrison Cheyenne Gabboon Ebony with a Zebrawood stripe.  It is 48#@28" with foam core limbs.  I bought this bow back in October and I love it.  I have another set of limbs on order from Bob that should be here soon.  They are also foam cores but with Zebrawood veneers 54#@28.

Thanks,

Brian
