Hunt Story
Traveled over five hours to the club in Talbot County to hunt the immediate pre-rut for several days. Deer were moving great and had seen several, about 20 minutes before dark this buck came walking by as they do in the seek phase. Head up, stopping every so often. When in the ideal spot I shot in chest but he took off, I quickly made a follow shot to neck but he just ran off. Recovering I discovered both shots hit but the neck shot split him open. Received a lot of kidding on how it was just a road kill/road rash I found, haha. Never saw bullet do just though. Best advice from hunt is to take advantage of those peak pre-rut days when bucks are in the seek walking phase. Thanks for the opportunity. Sincerely, Tom Winn
