3whunt Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 (edited) What a beautiful opening day in Oklahoma. The temperature was just right, not to cold and definately not hot, overcast, and bucks cruisin'. Just after sunrise I had a mature ten point come out cruisin. He didn't stick around very long and soon disappeared into the woods. Saw several does/fawns filter by throughout the rest of the morning. Got out of the stand for lunch around 11:00 am. After meeting for lunch, my dad and I headed back to the stands around 12:30. When I had made it approximately 3/4 of the way back to the stand, I was busted. 3.5 year old 8 point took off running straight away from me. I got the good feeling...and headed on to the stand. Set out the code blue (in tink's bombs), and settled in for the afternoon. It was approximately 1:15 pm. Well the clouds started breaking and the wind picked up. The wind was blowing of the south/southeast directly towards an overgrown field that the deer around here love to bed in. It wasn't a long sit and the ten point below came trotting-in: lip curl and all. It only took him about a minute to cover the 150 yards from the overgrown field. I shot him quartering to me at 35 yards with a 130 grain Ballistic Silvertip .270 WSM. No blood trail at all, DRT.

3whunt Posted November 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Congratulations bud! Doesn't look like Honobia territory?? It ain't in Honobia...we losed that lease, but that is another story. This one came from around Ardmore, OK. Open pastures and wooded draws. A totally different environment and a ton easier to hunt.
