First deer ever. Halloween Buck.

Buck taken Halloween night at 5:55. After climbing into stands around 1:30, my buddy Skyler saw this buck rubbing on a tree 30 yards away. He ran in and out of the woods twice never giving a clear shot until he came back in and bedded down 40 yards away through thick timber. A few hours later Skyler got down to see if he could put a good stalk on him. Walking up to the hill he was behind took a solid 30 or 40 minutes. When he could see the buck over the hill through the brush (5 yards) the buck got up and walked around the brush, right at Skyler. The buck got within a few feet before taking off to the South. I later got a text saying to get ready, an, and a few seconds later a buck came through. Never seen this buck on camera, even though new deer are coming through every year, there wasn?t much of a decision to be made at the time. I was going to shoot. He stopped down wind but kept moving, he was straight to my left and at 23 yards I took the shot. We followed a deep blood trail 40 yards until it took a cut towards the river. There he was. All we had to do was cross the river and drag him up the bank to the edge of the field. I?d say he?s a great first deer.


First deer ever. Not the biggest Buck. But I an happy with him. He is a solid 8. Hey. I'm 17. Ill have chances at bigger deer, but for now, he'll do. Everyone has to start somewhere.
