Saw our #1 target buck a little bit ago at 25 yards...... but across the fence on the neighbors land God he's a beautiful buck. Sent from my SM-S908U using Bowhunting.com Forums mobile app
Im overlooking a creekbottom and drainage that leads to a pond in middle of a block of timber. Surrounded by cut corn and beans. My buddy is hunting 180 yds from me he just saw the bucks and doe go by lol. The pot is starting to boil!!!!
Thank you for all of the congratulations! It was honestly a very slow morning until the last 30 seconds. it was 9:20 and I d coded to put my rattle pack away, as I was doing that I decided to tickle them together for 20-30 seconds. As soon as I got them put away I got snort wheezed at twice, these snort wheezes were less then 30 yards away! As soon as the second one ended I threw out a grunt (my grunt tube is always in my chest pocket so it was very muffled), he grunted back and started thrashing bunches, I still had not seen him. After making 2 to 3 rubs and 2 scrapes I finally saw a tine as he worked his way into 12 yards. I had no idea how big this buck was but knew that I had to be drawn because of the 2 small windows I thought he was going to pass through. I drew as he was making his way into my first opening and stopped him as he came into the second opening. I gave a bleh, he turned and as I said he’s big in my head I squeezed the trigger and the rest is history. He ran about 60-70 yards and crashed in the middle of a crp. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t lose my ****!
Mitch- awesome story. Way to go. Stud deer! I am stuck in a tree on edge of picked cornfield. Deer all over. At least 5 decent bucks. Too dark to tell how big some of them are. I guess I'm going to wait a half hour and then climb down. Grunting and chasing as I write. Fun night. Not looking forward to busting deer out of here. East wind tomorrow, so I'll be a half mile away.
