Hunt Story

I’ve watched this buck on camera since July of this year. Tried my best to figure out his bedding area and hunted him hard with my bow but never could catch him in daylight. I finally narrowed down where he had been bedding and slipped in close this morning with my rifle before the rain came in. Sat up against a tree as if I was turkey hunting and at first light he came out walking behind a doe. After the shot I couldn’t find any blood but I knew the trail he took, I walked in and found him about 50 yards inside the wood-line laying behind a blown down tree. The amount of work that went into hunting this one particular buck over the last 5 months paid off today and to be able to share the experience afterwards by taking pictures with my parents and son is a true blessing and a memory I will cherish forever.
