Notch another one for team 3!

Gotta share my story with you all so I hope I don't bore ya too much.

Opening day was nice and cold and we were hoping that the deer would start moving. 7:10 am I hear a shot and get a call from my dad that he downed an 8 point and there were 2 more buck headed my way. Caught a glimpse of one headed for me and started picking my shooting lanes. A great big 4 (body wise) walked 20 feet from me before I decided to miss him.

Anyhow I was a little ticked at myself for waiting too long on the 4 and was worried I might not get a chance at another buck. So Sat. evening my dad told me to sit in the stand he always gets his big bucks from. I sat there and watched turkey all evening without seeing a deer as he sat down near the stand I was in and bagged a doe and saw 2 more bucks.

So last chance for me was Sunday morning before we headed back to KC. Right at daylight I saw a doe jet by into some thickets to my left but I didn't feel comfortable shooting with so little daylight. Not even 5 minutes later a 4 point came in hot on her trail....kind of like a bloodhound. We grunted 4-5 times and he wouldn't even aknowledge we were there and his nose never left that does trail. It was getting alittle chilly out and needless to say I was getting worried that I would be left with unfilled tags again. Just then I had a doe come flying down the trail and I decided to take her. The old man grunted to get her to stop and I downed her with a neck shot. Not even 2 minutes after I shot her I saw this guy coming down the same trail. He stopped right at our scent stick about 40yds when we grunted and I dropped him there. He's the biggest one I've gotten so far and I'm sure glad I missed that 4pt on Saturday.
