Hunt Story
Hunting with my father the evening after I missed a doe. Two does came out bedding area and walked along the wood line. Shortly after three more does came out and met up with the other two. I was unable to get a shit since they were behind some thick cover feeding. My dad said to be patient a big buck may come out. A short time after my dad said look another deer, it’s a buck. He picked up his binos and said he’s a shooter get your gun ready. The buck was making his way towards the does and getting further away from us. I was unable to get a shot due to all the hurricane blowdowns. Suddenly the buck made a turn and was heading in our direction my dad bleated twice to stop him but he kept moving. He got closer and my dad bleated louder. The buck stopped just long enough for me to pull the trigger. I said I got him, as the buck ran wobbly behind cover. My dad said you got him let’s calm down a second and take our time to make sure he’s dead. We packed up and made it down, we both saw him laying in clearing. We high fived and both laughed it excitement.
