Justin, thanks for the kind words about the newcomers. John and I had never hunted together before, solast season was really an adventure for us. It all came together though. My hunt is the one with the decoy encounter and then the 6 point harvest right after it.

We really had an exciting season. I had a huge 11 point duck my arrow on film. I tend to shoot high and it cost me on this buck. I had 2 encounters with him this past fall. I know he made it through the season, so I'm really looking forward to this fall. I did end up taking a great buck off camera 8 days after the miss. It happened to be the only day that John couldn't make it to video me. It was a 150+ gross 25" wide 9 point. That at least took the sting out of blowing the shot on the booner.

I tell you one thing I doubt I ever go in the woods without the camera again. The little things one experiences day to day while in the stand are hard to share with friends and family without having them on film.

Chris
