backyard buck
Two weeks ago after I tagged out in fall bow, I seen this buck for the first time out in the field scraping up a little tree, so i grunted and wheezed to him and he came up to about fifty yards from my front porch. That encounter got me and my old man thinking about putting a stand up at home so we hung one on a hedgerow between a little horse pasture and a 20 acre hay field. Permit bow started up saturday, and finally this afternoon I climbed up in the stand late around four pm. Forty five minutes later he came loping across the hay field and down past my stand I grunted and then he came back up the hedgerow and right into my lane at ten yards, I sunk the striker right into the shoulders and through the heart. I watched in disbelief as his a$$ ended started to wobble after thirty yards and twenty yards later he piled up dead as could be. Next thing I'm doing is tearing down the climbing sticks and running across the field to get to what turned out to be my best buck so far, and not too bad for a buck from northern Hunterdon County New Jersey.
