RE: Kansas Buck
alright heres the story...as requested. This is only my second year bowhunting and i got a decent 5x5 whitetail last year and i wanted to get a mule deer to put on the wall. i accomplished that. anyway...the location i have stands at doesn't get much buck traffic through it till the rut so me and a friend just went out to see if we could spot any nice bucks. We hadn't seen much all afternoon then finally saw this guy and two other small bucks on top of this little hill. we sit and watched them for a while and they started down into the valley so we decided to go around and try to get ahead of them and down wind...because like always it was pretty windy here in kansas. We went around the hill we were sitting on and started up the valley they were in. We couldn't see any of them anymore then as we walked further we saw thesmaller two take off running up the hill. We were pretty dissappointed and figured this guy was already gone too but we kept walking up the valley through some fairly tall grass and then i spotted the top of his antlers about 70 yards ahead in some very tall weeds. luckily he paid no attention to us. So we very quietly snuck up toward him and when i got about 20 yards away i just waited for him to walk out because i couldn't get a good shot off due too the tall weeds he was in. After a long ten minutes or so he came walking out and i drew back and got an arrow off. It hit its mark and he went about 50 yards up the hill and was done. Now hes at the taxidermist and i cant wait to get him back

RE: Kansas Buck **story as requested**
