The Buck who got away..

[dukemichaels]

I chased this buck hard all season this year.. but he was nothing but a ghost. He left sign and tracks nearly everyday I hunted him but I just couldn't get him to make a mistake and move during daylight.

I had 1 encounter with him.. and he showed up just after daylight expired in early November. I had him at just over 20 yards.. but it was just too dark and I didn't even pick up my bow.[:@]

He's not huge by any means.. about 140" maybe a few inches more.. really good mass. Today I was able to pick up his sheds not more than 100 yards from our encounter..

Can't wait til next year.

Thats awesome, wish i could find some sheds

Dude, that is sweet! I guess if you can't get the job done, his sheds are the next best thing....You'll get him next year bro.....And he'll be even better!

[Bols]

Congrats man....great find! And just think......he'll have more mass next year.

But then again, after this weekend,who cares about 140+" bucks....bring on the 200"ers.[8D]

No thanks Al. That was a fluke.. it was cool.. but just a fluke.

I'm real superstitious about hunting.. so I ain't callin' notin'.
