They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and I believe that is the truth. These are pictures from a bow hunt last week in southeast Iowa. It took 4 years to draw and was well worth the wait. I will try to tell the story of our hunt in as few words as possible.

I would say that 70-80 % of the corn was still standing. What a beautiful spot on earth.

The first few days of the hunt were awesome. I had various encounters with borderline bucks and saw one absolute giant. The sunrise from my stand on this morning felt different. Maybe today was the day i would connect with my first buck with traditional archery equipment.

Around 7:15 I looked up and saw a mature buck headed right for one of my 2 shooting lanes. I could not put the deer in a better spot when the shot was made.  The Timberghost launched the rocket and the Magnus Stinger did the rest. The shot was perfect.

A mature buck in Iowa, I'm thinking it's going to be a XXL  :thumbsup:
