MY FIRST BUCK FOR 08
#1
If you read my first post (missed him need advice) this is the same place but different buck. Got up a little late but still made good time to my spot. I did take care of the holy tree that got in my way the first time.so I made it up the tree and got all set up be 7:45 perfect. then around 8:30 the wind started. I was alright for an hour but it started to get to me,time for the coat and the full face mask. now just after doing all this I hear something off to my left side and there is a doe standing there 30 yds out now two and then what is that cant see it so the first doe get a little nerves and back track some and moves out and around the trail they wanted to use and the other do the same I pass on the first doe when she comes in at 25 yds now she is stepping her feet down hard ?(not sure what she was doing )but the other doe walked the same path then the last deer came out and that was a doe also.( they all walked the same path) I gave them a little time and tried to call them back just to keep them around has bait but after three tries I stopped. For the first time ever I can say I have heard a buck doing a tending grunt it sounding like a little bull frog and there he was walking the same way the does did, came in backed tracked the same way man he was on them good and I thought he would walk the same place the first doe did and give me a chance at him at 25 yards out. well he did and here he is .I will say hes a 6 but hes got this little curve that could be a 7th but it not longer then a inch.

thanks everyone hope you all have luck this weekend also. now that I have got one and some meat in the freezer I might hold off on the next one if he is not bigger. but then again getting that one out of the woods was hell and he was maybe 120 lbs. all the dead wood and the hill I dont know if I want a bigger one ....ya right . Good luck everyone
