Hunt Story
Colton and I were watching about a dozen does in the food plot when an 8-point stepped into the food plot. Colton decided not to shoot him. After discussing it a few mins, a few more does came into the food plot. We agreed that if nothing came out in the next few minutes that he would shoot a doe for the freezer. Then Colton says, "DADDY DADDY DADDY!! BIG BUCK!!" This buck enter the food plot and began to feed. He fed his way straight out in front of the box stand at about 80 yards. This took about 12 to 15 minutes (seemed like forever). Colton made the shot, and the deer mule kicked and ran out of the food plot. We had to be in the batting cages at 6:45, so we gave the deer a couple of hours. Needless to say it wasn't his best round of batting, but this is his best buck to date.
