my first deer, hmmm...my dad and i had been hunting this certain 160 acre property all week of the '05 rifle season. it finally came down to the wire on the last day of the season. we were just getting ready to leave when the landowner tells us that they're getting a big drive together (40+ people) so my dad heads back to his stand and i head to mine. well i was sittin' up there for maybe 10 minutes looking out the shooting lanes. those were the only places i'd have a shot, the brush was so dense. soon i hear the drivers start going but it would be awhile until they headed in my direction. but 'lol and behold, i saw a pair of legs walking through the brush (it was so dense thats all i could see). so i got my gun up and put the crosshairs about where i thought it would cross the lane. and sure enough, a couple seconds later it comes running (absolutly RUNNING) accross the lane. i found it in my scope and squezed on the trigger, straight down went the button buck and my first deer. its an experience to remember, lemme tell ya.
