RE: First buck stories?
good story....my most memoral day and my first buck is on the same day.....first day of rifle season 2002...nice fresh snow on the ground...we walk our 2 miles to our spot and settle in...first light a deer was browsing around and dad couldnt get a shot so he passed...5 mins later he sees it again and has a shot...drops it...he checked it over and over to make sure we didnt take button bucks from out spot....this was the biggest body and littlest nubbed button buck ive ever seen...hes gutting it and im standing there watching..i see a doe bound across a big cut trail about 60 yds away....i unsling my rifle just incase i can get a shot at one...i hear a train coming..i look an a herd of deer is running righ at us...about 40 yds away on a dead run through a thicket...i toook the lead deer and took her right out of the air perfectly...dad couldnt believe it...we put our deer in a pile and throw extra orange clothing on them to be safe...about 830-9am i see a doe....im out of doe tags for that county but somehow dad got himself 2 and me only 1...i was like dad dad take her...he looks up and say oh! a nice buck! i look and see a rack sticking out of both sides of a tree...it was looking right at my dad and he couldnt move... i twisted around because the deer was behind me..got a rest on a log and fired...i couldnt believe it..my first buck!! after 4 years of hunting i finally got one! it was only a little 6pt but i think its the greatest in the world...
