As I stated in another thread, having to start fresh the 2nd week of bow season here in NY because some thieves broke into my car and stole everything was pretty frustrating. But the 2014 Mission Blaze did its job. Just hung this stand on a property I've hunted for years and chased big bucks but could never close the deal. It was 945 and I was going to switch to another stand in some oaks. All of a sudden something caught my eye and I even had my cell phone in my hand. It was this guy coming across the bank. Right in the heart at 30 yards and watched him go down. All I can say is redemption feels great! Most bucks in my part of the county do not live past 1 1/2. We are thinking he is 3 1/2. Field dressed 175. 2nd year of letting bucks grow and it finally paid off!
ONE HECK OF A BUCK. HERE IN MICHIGAN WE KINDA HAVE THE SAME SCENARIO WITH A MINIMAL NUMBER OF WHAT i CALL SHOOTERS, MANY YOUNGER ONES. CONGRATS ON A GOOD JOB DONE.
awesome buck man, sorry to hear about the start of your season I know a guy who had his blind and stand both stolen out of private property last year... but he didn't recover as quick as you did that is awesome
