Well Today Was A Bust
Compared to the last week it was anyways, the wind was in the high 60's and it was only -9 but with the windchill factor it was-17.I froze my little butt off and for what ? I saw my 1st buck at 9:05 and a shooter next week but not this week,bout a 120 4x4. Then at 9:15 I was still watching the 4x4 freshen some scrapes when I heard the crunching of leaves behind me. I turn and low and behold theres my 150 buck, I call star. He's a good 150 this year,I've been watching this buck grow from a 1 1/2 year old when he was a 4x1,at 2 1/2 he was a 4x2 then this year he's a 4x5 ,but the 5 are shaped into a star and their all 8 inches long. His right main beam extends past his nose and is thick, I wanted this buck so bad the last 2 years to get him out of the gene pool. Man was I wrong , I wanted to shoot him bad today. But the Lord gave him an extended life when he allowed him to walk away behind the seclusion of branches and bush[:@].He came in the way he was supposed to but turned early,as I watched he actually got stuck for a few seconds trying to crawl under the fence which I thought, why didn't he jump it,LMAO[:-]. I stayed till 11:30 and had to pack up and leave as it was way to windy. I checked out my other stand and the dang tree broke off just above the stand. So I walked out and left. Tomorrow is another day guys and it's supposed to be +1 and calm

. Can't wait to get back in the saddle. Hope you guys are having better luck than I did today.
