Default RE: Official Team "Braggin Bucks" (23) Thread

Having some tough weather in the Midwest over the last few days...but I guess that's the Midwest for ya. Went out Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday. On Friday, saw a doe and two yearlings, but never had a clean shot on the doe...had shots on both the young ones though. Didn't see much on Saturday, but Sunday morning I was gently rattling the antlers together and a very nice 8 ptr. came to investigate. He was within three feet of getting in the clear for a good shot, but since he didn't see two bucks fighting he went back where he came from. I was pulled back for about a minute before letting down...very exciting, but frustrating none the less. I'm pretty sure this guy was a very nice 6 ptr last year...passed him up during the pre-rut.

How was everyone else's weekend?
