Nice buck.

Dang!

I've hunted this deer for a while now. Decided before this season, I was going to hunt only him, if I didn't kill him, I would be ok not getting one this year and try again next year. Saw some does in a clearing in a small thicket this morning. Watching them through my binos, the buck blew through too quick to get a shot. He checked the does and got on. There's a cleared fenceline on the other side of the thicket then a deep hardwood hollar where I was sure he lived. I thought to myself the only chance I had was to slip up the hill to where I could see him crossing that fenceline going back into the woods. I got out of my shooting house and walked about 150yards up the hill to where I could see up the fenceline. He jumped out of the thicket and stood right in the fenceline. 150yard shot freehand, DRT. I know he's not a giant by many standards, but he's the biggest I've gotten pictures of and he is the one I wanted. There are a thousand things that could've gone wrong but one thing went right, the Lord blessed me and my efforts this morning. Kind of sad knowing he's gone and I wont be able to hunt him anymore. But I passed on a nice 8pt this year that looked just like my buck did three years ago, when I started getting pics of him. His blood lives on.

If someone will PM me that can post pics, I'll shoot some pictures of my buck from this morning.

Cool story jwalker.....congratulations!

Congrats fellas

Awesome story. Great looking buck.

Yea get it jwalker! I've got one picked out like you I hope to put on the dirt myself. We've had a few brushes here and there, just no clear shot. Congrats!

Congrats to all of the killers!!! Those are some nice bucks!

I'm hunting a big food plot this afternoon, hoping the deer will move/feed heavily before dark

Congrats on the kills fellas. I left my hunting camp this morning and drove home. The deer up there dont move in rain and sleet so I came home to my property around here. Sitting in a warm shooting house looking at a 6 acre green field and have got two spikes and two yearlings here and a six point so far.

Perfect picture of an absolute miserable evening here in baldwin county !

Nice buck ridgehunter!

They're moving early today. I've seen 6 does and fawns since 4:05

I sat until 300 my feet started to hurt from the cold so I packed my stuff and left!


Congrats on the kills.

I'm pretty sure right now I couldn't see much less kill a deer in a little pen high fence property!
