Not the biggest buck I have ever taken.(new PICS)
#1

Only 5 days left in the season and this 6 point walked out in front of me one too many times.
I first saw him after a doe ran out beside me. He followed right behind, and the two played ring around the rosie in and out of the woods for 10 mins. I then saw him in tall grass walking in front of me about 75 yards. I had not decided to shoot yet---but he went behind some trees and I finally saw him ease into the woods.
I was watching over a food plot for the next 45 mins. It was 20 mins after sunset and nothing had come out. Then I saw what I though was a big doe enter the food plot. When I looked with my binoculars---it was the 6 point. One too many times. I shot and he dropped in his tracks.
I have some digital pictures if someone can tell me how to post them. Not the biggest buck---but at least I have something to show for the season.

remember keep your back to the sun, your knife sharp, and your powder dry.

Congratulations. If these deer were so smart, we'd hear more stories about 10 pointers instead of 6 pointers that don't know when to hide out. Good job on the clean kill.
