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.
