Hunt Story

The best buck I'd seen on the camera in my favorite hunting spot had only been on camera in daylight once before. Then he came into my area at first light the morning of the primitive weapons opener, but I didn't get a shot. (I was bow hunting, and before I could draw, a gunshot in the distance spooked him off and he never came back). I figured I'd never get another chance, but this Saturday morning he came into the area again at 8:00 am. This time I had my rifle, so once he turned and gave me a good shot, I let loose! He stumbled 10 yards and dropped right in front of me. This is my best buck yet!
