RE: Official Team "Arrow Slingers" (22) Thread
Just trying to keep our thread up top. Anyone seeing any good bucks? I saw a nice one saturday while doing a little scouting. I have a stand set up on an island of trees in-between two corn fields. The cornfields have an old grassy waterway inbetween them that lead to the island. There is heavy timber on each side of the waterway and the tree island is at one end of the waterway. Needless to say this is a heavy used deer highway. Anyways, as I was going to the stand to put up a camera I looked down the trail and a buck was coming right at me. He didn't see me at first but once he did he put on the breaks and ran about 50 yards back down the trail. Then what happened I had never seen before, he came right back towards me to within 25 yards, stood there and stomped for a while then walked back to where he came from. All I can figure out is that he has been walking this same path for some time and was determined to get on through past me. He would have been a shooter but one side of his rack didn't develop, 5 points on one side wider than his ears but only one spike about 10 inches long on the other. This was at 11:30 am so I figure he was trying to get back to his bed and I was in his way. Cool experience non the less.
