Hunt Story

I got in my stand at 6:45 a.m. and saw a spike around 7:05. He walked away from me, and so I started grunting to see if any other deer were in the area. Ten minutes later here comes an 8-pointer coming right toward me and at 25 yards. He turns broadside and my .270 hit its target and he only ran 40 yards and piled up. This was a Union County national forest mountain deer, and they don’t come easy to hunt or find. I’m super proud of this deer. Especially since I never even knew he was in here even with a trail camera in the area for over a year!
