The 7/11 Buck
 
At roughly 7:11AM on the morning of the PA opener I had 5 deer come to my stand. Three of those 5 deer were buck. I can honestly say I have never seen 3 buck together in the stand. The 1st deer walked by, it was a yearling and I never saw the head to identify it, the 2nd deer had a long main beam on the right side(the only antler I paid attention to) but only a little split at the end and no brow tine. The 3rd deer was the nice 6 point in the picture, the 4th was another legal deer but not as big. There was a 5th deer but I only saw it take off after releasing my arrow. I had a solid slightly quartering away shot at roughly 15 yards. He did jump the string a bit by squatting hard and turning away. Took my boiler room shot and made it into a liver and opposite lung shot. After the shot the deer ran about 75-80 yards and piled up. This is my 2nd buck with a bow and I give a lot of the credit to my fellow posters on this site. Thank you all for sharing your hunting wisdom.

What is it with all you's? Not a grin amongst all y'all that have taken a buck this year. From now on, I wanna see pearlies on all y'all ('cept for Mobow, that one incisor with nothing but space on both sides is not something I wanna look at)!:D

Maybe that was it's only antler and you just saw a "Rob buck".;)

Anyway, Congratulations on the buck! I'm STILL waiting for my first shot at a buck with my bow.[&o]

Thank ya fellas, hopefully I can fill a doe tag or two before the PA archery season plays out. I've got a 12 year old boy that is just starting to hunt this year. I haven't gotten him into archery yet. I need to get him out small game hunting and lock him onto some deer come rifle season. This lets me concentrate on him and make some of those great memories.

fastbucknut - Harvested that buck in Adams County. Just a couple of miles away from the National Apple Harvest Festival if you know where that is.

burniegoeasily - After I released my arrow I checked the time and it happen to be exactly 7:11am...sorry for the misleading headline.
