Default So how would this make you feel....

So I still go to school and all so im not able to hunt in the mornings except on weekend. I hunt on privet property thats split by a road. On one side of the road the property backs rite up to a national forest so its a really good spot but to many people were hunting it at the beginning of the season, so i decided to go on the other side of the street since no one ever hunts it. That side of the property is mainly a huge field with about knee to chest high brush that the deer bed down in. Theres a nice path that runs threw the middle of the field. On one side of the field theres a small set of woods and on the other side theres a pine tree field, Behind is a very Large Bean field of something thats not part of the property.

So anyway, the 1st day i went back there to scout it out i would Massive rubs and scrapes in the woods, i didnt tell anyone and i knew no one knows bout it. So after a week of hunting i finally saw the buck that left them. He was a very massive, very white 10 point. Id say he was around 4 1/2 years old. He was about 90 yards infront of me. I would see him a few days in a row then not all all. Anyway i had him all patterned out. Then tonight was the best the weather could ever get! got down in the mid 20s, wind goin rite in my face from where the buck would be coming from, i knew he moved late in the Morning and then back late at night, I was all set. Waited and waited and waited.... didnt even see a doe... so it was 7:30 and i packed up and left, Got to my truck and pulled out, then my uncle drove by and we stoped and talked a bit (he hunts on the other side of the road), Then he tells me " Ya a guy sat back there in ur spot, along the path this afternoon"... and then i knew wat he was guna say... my heart droped... then he says "The guy killed a huge 10 point!", I looked at him and was just like wow......

So anyway, To shorten up the story....
I find a once in a life time buck (for me at least), I get him all patterned out, then a guy that has never hunted over there, Sits in my spot, dosnt know anything about the deer in that area, And kills the buck that i have been working so hard for all season long.

Sorry to vent but just had to get it out of me.
