Big Buck Down in KS!
Went out yesterday afternoon and set up on a secluded watering hole next to a bedding area and watched around 35 deer come right to the hole. I couldn't believe how many deer were up that early in the heat (85 degrees) Watched a 130 class buck at 200 yds but decided to pass and a couple of 120 inch deer. At about a half hour before shooting light was over this buck showed up at 70 yards and I let the Thompson/Center do the rest. Mainframe 8 point with a split brow tine, great mass and good spread. Only traveled fifty yards after the shot and piled up. Was hell getting him out of the bottom but was totally worth it. Only downside is that my buck hunting is over untill next year.....Slick heads watch out! September 23rd, first day hunting, what a way to start the season.
