Hunt Story
I have been getting some pictures of this deer, only at night, on my Stealth game cam .I saw on my cam that he came out one evening when I didn't go hunting. The next morning I got my muzzle loader and went hunting, hoping that he would show up, but he didn't show. That evening I told my wife I was going to take my new 10-point crossbow and try to kill him with it. I had bought it new this season and had not made a kill with it yet, I had only shot the target a few times to set it up. I was in my ground blind and he came out to the feeder around 5:30 on a beautiful evening. When I shot him he hit the ground, got up and dead walked for about 40 yards and fell down. So, my first kill with my 10-point crossbow, is a 10-point buck. Pretty awesome!
