Wednesday the 6th of October, I had a perfect wind for an evening hunt in one of my areas that I believed was holding a big buck. I got dressed outside of my truck and started to walk into the field when I guy pulls up and hollars for me. He tells me that at 8:30 pm everynight he sees this monster buck feeding near the road where I'm going to hunt. I thanked him for his info and asked him not to tell anyone else. And then I assured his wife that I had no intentions of killing the deer.

Talk about being pumped for a hunt. At 6:15 a nice sized 5 point walked right under my stand and I'm thinking you couldn't get any perfect than this. I sat for the rest of the night without another sighting, but I'm still pumped about the stand. My brother inlaw hunted the same stand Friday morning and said after the hunt he walked up the trail behind the stand about 50 yards and found a rub this size of his thigh and as high as his shoulders. Now, I'm REALLY pumped. I'm still debating whether or not to put my deercam up, but I don't want to spook him away. Hopefully I'll have a good picture of him this season , with me holding his rack up.
