RE: My rut is possibly spoiled- gun question
The biggest bucks i ever saw walked out while i was hunting Ground Hogs. I was on the edge of an Alfalpha field and had been shooting all day. About 4-4:30 a doe walked out and started feeding. I fired two or three rounds at hogs and, after the the first shot she never looked up again. She stood in the field about an hour before a huge buck stepped out. Shortly after that his Grandaddy followed. At just a hair over 200yds they would have been an easy shot with the 25-06 i was using. Unfortunatly it was only mid August in Virginia. I wanted so bad to just say "THE HELL WITH IT" and ditch my morals. My dad, brother-n-law and mysef just lay there watching and shooting here an there. They stayed until dark then moved of as we got our junk together.
