bowin_in_illinois Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Shot a nice 8 pointer last night. He is not the monster I have been after, but with second gun season starting tomorrow, and hunting being tough already...I decided I would take the next nice deer that gave me the opportunity. I sat in a stand I hadn't sat in yet right on the edge of some timbered river bottom. I watched a couple bucks spar a little...then saw a couple does and a buck feeding in the timber...when this guy showed up. I put a great heart shot on him, and followed a great blood trail through the snow right to him. He made the last 20 yds. tough by crossing the river, but we got him. He field dressed 180lbs and has a broken G-3 on his left side. He will be a good looking euro mount. I had a hard time getting pictures, because of the weather, and my family didn't get home til late...but I did the best I could. By time I was ready for the "good pic" he was frozen solid. here you can see my heart shot. Dang those rages are awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
