I got another doe this morning. I had about the funnest 20 minutes in the woods ever between 8:40 and 9:00. a small buck was chasing a doe all over the place. In that short time i saw 5 different deer.i passed on the little 5 pointer, shot the doe right through the heart. the fletching end of the arrow broke off. i found it stuck in her heart while field dressing her. that was neat to see. she dropped in less than 30 yards.

I picked up the (all marketing, i know) mad buck growl (which does not sound like a growl at all!) and did some grunting and rattling. I figured I'd listen for deer as i pack my stuff up and get ready to go do some scouting. within a minute deer started showing up everywhere!!! pretty fun morning! now, i'm not saying this buck growl call is worth the hype, i'm just as skeptical as everyone else about these new mad and primos calls. whether it was the call or not that was amazing!!!! for all i know it could have just been a coincidence. like i said, i'm skeptical.

good luck these coming weeks guys. I'm taking the week of the 5th off to gun hunt. if i get a buck then, the whole contest thing is all over for me. hopefully i'll get one w/ bow.
