Got a good One

I finally saw enough rutting activity on trail camera to enter my core area at the house. North west wind dictated the stand I would sit, this stand is only good during the rut. It is a pinch point at the top of a large hollow funneling the deer around the hollow instead of traveling through it. 7:21 am I spotted a deer in the fog 31 yards below my stand. When he cleared the tree he was behind I decided he was one I wanted to take. He fed to 22 yards, double lung, ran about 100 yards down the mountain before piling up. 19 1/2'" outside spread,  202 LB. live weight, scored 117 5/8.  this is my second best bow buck to date.

Didnt last years hunt go kinda like that too?  Way to go BUD!  NICE buck

yep very similar, I don't head up till the bucks are ready. with my area you have to go up through everything to hunt it. I wait till they are traveling side to side on the mountain searching before it is time to hunt. it takes patience but usually pays off with hunting uneducated deer. I am not a great hunter so dumb deer are my best chance. LOL
