Got my buck this morning. I was was rattling around 7 this morning, and I heard a loud crash. I turned my head and saw a big bodied deer coming toward me. I still had my antlers in my hands, so I sat them on my legs and picked up my bow. The antlers even fell and clanged on the tree, but the buck didn't even care. He was intent on finding the fight. Well, I stopped him at about 7 yards and let the arrow fly. The rage did its job, and the buck went down about 30 yards from me. He has palmation on hisright side, so I'll show a picture of that.Looks like the rut is finally kicking in here in Ohio.

Congratulations! It sounds like a fun encounter.

nice buck good to see fellow buckeye hunters taking deer

It was a great buck. I saw him coming up the field toward me, but decided to pass on him. Then, he went right up to my dad.

Congratulations!

Congrats on the buck. That is a crazy looking rack.

That buck was on a mission. I snort wheezed at him and he went a little crazy. Then he heard my dad rattle and he went right up there toward him.
