The other day i wrote a post about me stalking up on a decent 8 pt. intitled " I Can' t Believe This!!" , where a guy on the four wheeler drove up on me and scared it off. well this afternoon i set my treestand up near where i thought the deer were coming from to feed under a huge water oak. well, at about 4:50 i caught movement ahead of me in the thicket. out pops a small 4 pt. and immediatley began feeding. i wasn' t going to take him, i have already taken one lesser buck this season, so it had to be 8 pt. or better. he fed for about 5 min. and then wandered off. i thought my evening was over until another deer entered the picture. it was the buck that i had stalked last Friday. i get another chance at him. well, he fed into about 17 yards of be. and as i was drawing my bow he spotted me. well kinda, he knew something wan' t right but he couldn' t quite put a hoof on it!. ASAT works wonders!!! well, by then it was too late and lights out. he was quartering toward me, and i let it fly. perfect shot, he didn' t go 20 yards until he piled up. the Muzzy cut his heart right into. he is a nice 8 pt. 16 inch spread . with decent mass. i' ll post pics when i get them back.

I enjoyed the first story (well, didn' t think it was funny, just shared in your frustration). That is so cool you got another chance on the same deer and wound up whacking him. Congrats!
