Pics to come later today or tomarrow....here's the story.

About 8 or so a decent 5 point walked right up from behind me. He was missing browtines or otherwise he would of been a nice deer. He walked right in front of me, I'm talking like 10 feet from the base of my ladder. He had just walked out of sight when I heard all this racket coming from my left. I was pretty sure it was just squirrels at first, but when I glanced over I saw bits and pieces of deer moving through some real nasty stuff about 60 or 70 yards off. Not knowing what they were, I figured what the heck, I'll try the grunt tube. I gave a couple soft grunts on the true talker and seconds later I saw multiple deer and multiple sets of horns coming my way. They circled around and got behind me, then a 3 point and a small doe worked right up my left side and eventually got to about 10 feet right in front of me. They were standing in the exact same spot the 5 pointer was a few minutes earlier. But by now I was wrapped around the tree taking a look at the shooter buck standing behind me at 25 yards. I was praying the doe and small buck right in front of me weren't going to nail me. They eventually worked their way off. Finally, after scanning the woods a million times and doing tons of scent checks, the buck I wanted to shoot started making his way towards the deer in front of me. By now I am realizing he is at least an 8 point with a kicker off his right G-2, making him a 9. He was about two steps away from a shooting lane when I caught a glimpse of another buck still hanging back in the brush. All I know is he was wider then the 9 point that was working my way, so I decided to wait and hope he was bigger and was going to come out. Right about then I am starting to realize there are more deer beside me on my right, I can't see them but they are really close. I'm watching the 9 point who is watching the deer on the otherside of me when all the sudden he gets the idea something isn't right. I don't know if the deer on the other side of me spooked, or if he got wind of me or what. He turns and starts high stepping straight away from me. At this point I realize that I'm not even going to get a look at the wider deer and I'm either going to have to shoot this buck right now or I won't get either of them.So, I yank the string back as he hits my last shooting lane. I gave out a loud "baaaaaa" and that stopped him in his tracks, quartering away at 15 yards. I sent the muzzy 4 blade on its way and drilled him. He went about 60 yards and piled up. I'll tell you what, this is the first deer I have used with those 4 blades and I could not be more impressed. That thing blasted right through him, back shoulder and all, and left one of the best blood trails I have ever seen on a bowshot deer. He ends up being a 9 pointer, just short of 16" on the spread, with nice height and real nice symmetry. I couldn't be happier. grin.gifgrin.gifgrin.gif

Here be the pics. cool.gif

Sorry about the background scenery, I was just to exhausted to even think about moving him out of the truck for a better picture.
