Griz Posted October 28, 2010 Report Share Posted October 28, 2010 A friend of mine had been buggin' me to death to take her Deer Hunting... So today she got her wish... We took off to a part of the ranch that hasn't been hunted for the last 4 or 5 years... Over time I have seen some super Bucks in this area so I knew what it had... Tonya was runnin' alittle behind and didn't get here until about 6:30am. this morning... We walked about 500 yards to a spot where I sat my pop-up blind up... We weren't in the blind 20 min. when I caught a Doe and Fawn working thereselfs to us... Not far behind them came a Buck into view... I picked up the Bino's and told Tonya that he was a shooter... At this time Tonya started getting the shacks and I was trying to calm her down... The Buck was about 200 yards and Tonya was ready to shoot...LOL... I told to wait that he was working his way to us... What seem like forever the Buck finally came with in 25 yards of us and to a licking branch... At this time I really had to calm Tonya down... We had to wait for the Buck to turn right before she pulled the trigger... In a short time the Buck turned and I told Tonya to "Take Him"... Tonya shoots and the Buck bolted in a dead run... 245gr. Blackpowder round found it's mark... I ended up recovering the Buck at 400 yards... The Buck has 18 points and field dressed 168lbs... Not bad for a 3 1/2 yr. old Buck... Oh by the way... This is Tonya's very first Deer ever... I don't no who was more excited...Me or her... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
