November 2008 Buck is on the wall.
« on: August 07, 2009, 03:17:48 PM »
First a little step back into the past. On November 25th I decided to change up my tactics once again and it paid off. I had been seeing a big bodied rascal in the bottom 2 mornings in a row on the edge of a thicket. That morning I got to my tree sat down on the ground and waited for him. Sure enough, at 7am he come strolling through with a doe in tow. Picked a spot in the thicket and when he got there the 95gr Fusion hit him and 30 yards later he hit the dirt. Man I love it when a plan comes together. This is my biggest buck to date and on my little ol 6 acres at that. Of course there is 200 more acres around it, but who cares. Got him on my land and that is what makes it so nice. Don't know what he will score, but he sure is nice for me.





Fast forward to today. Finally got him home. I am very pleased.
