Hunt Story

MY GRANDSON( BRENDON) AND I HAD OBSERVED SEVERAL DOES AND A FEW SMALL BUCK IN THE FOOD PLOT THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON, AROUND 5:30 P.M. A DOE ENTERED THE FOOD PLOT FOLLOWED BY A LARGE BUCK AT AN ESTIMATED 250 YARDS. WE PRACTICE QDM SO I PICK UP THE BINOCULARS TO CONFIRM THE BUCK WAS AT LEAST 3.5 YEARS OLD, ABOUT THE TIME I CONFIRMED HE WAS A SHOOTER THE BUCK BECAME NERVOUS ABOUT BEING IN THE FOOD PLOT AND TURNED TO HEAD FOR COVER. I DECIDED TO TAKE THE SHOT, BRENDON DECLARED A MISS AT THE SIGN OF THE BUCK EXITING THE FOOD PLOT IN HIGH GEAR. I FOUND THE BUCK PILED UP AT AROUND 60 YARDS IN THE WOODS.
