Here's the story!!!
I got done with work early and rushed home and took a shower and got out to the stand at 4:35 pm Friday night. It was about 70 degrees in the stand and kinda breezy out. Didn't see anything till 6 pm till this guy comes out of the corn and starts eating on one of my small food plots with rape, turnips, and peas in it. He ate there for about 15 min and then slowly started walking towards me. He took his sweet time in the woods eating and acorns. Then he decides to bed down 30 yards from me behind a tree. He sat there for 15-20 min. He got back up around 6:30 and he was very alert. He never smelt me but it was a bit breezy out and it made him nervous at times. At 6:45 pm he decides to walk out to my big food plot with clover in it. I draw back and stop him in my opening at 25 yards. I let her fly I the arrow went in a little back but I could see the firenock go all the way through the deer and lit up on the other side of the long grass. (with a 2 blade rage). He ran about 75 yards into the corn and the rest is history
He weighed 175 pounds dressed.
