Hunt Story

My 12-year-old son Edward was sitting with his Uncle Dennis in a new stand we put up this season. We had seen a few good bucks out of it but had never seen this buck. The 10-pointer came out chasing a doe about 7: 45 on Sunday morning November 12th, and my son could never get the deer to stop long enough to get a good shot on the deer. The deer came back into the food plot the second time and again never stopped long enough to give them an adequate shot. Finally, Edward began to use his grunt call and the deer appeared about 5 minutes later. This time Edward was ready, and he did not hesitate to put his Smith and Wesson .308 to good work. The big 10-pointer fell right in his tracks!! He was very excited after getting up close and seeing his Trophy Buck!!
