Default Rattled an 11 pointer in...MO buck # 2 down!!!!!

[hr]

Well, we had a high of 49 today and it melted most of the snow. I decided to leave the croplands and get way back into a cow pasture/timber area about 3/4 of a mile from the nearest house. I rattled this guy in on only my 2nd attempt of the set. He came in from my left and there was no way for him to wind me with my setup unless he wanted to jump a fence and approach in wide open country. He got within 10 yds of my tree and made the fatal mistake of stepping into a small clearing that gave me the opportunity I was looking for. I had been on full draw for easily 2-3 minutes as I expected him to walk into a different shooting lane. I squeezed my arrow through a narrow opening of limbs(hunting in thick hedgeapple tree country) and I smoked him. He ran approx 50 yds and I heard him fall. Time was approx 4:30. What a year!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thanked God for another awesome archery harvest, climbed down, set up my portable tripod, and started snapping pics. 11 scoreable points and my 2nd 11 pointer of the year. One happy MO bowhunter!!!! [/align][/align][/align][/align][/align][/align][/align]
