Default Counting Coup

Had a nice freezer buck 'do the dance' on me tonight. Came into 20 yards and knew something was not right. Circled through the brush to get downwind. I followed even though I had no intention of shooting him. He kept bobbing and weaving trying to get me to move. Finally got all the way downwind, where I put the crosshairs on him at 18 yards...just before he took off. In my mind I see the fetching bury just behind his right leg. He's safe for now. Hunting horns; the 10 pointer that looks +150 on camera.

Only one any sex tag here in Iowa, but all the doe tagsyou can stick at 11.00 per pop. Cheaper and better felling than hittin the bars in town. Most of my does go to the DNR to feed the homeless and our prisoners after my freezer is bulging.
