Public land buck

Unread postby oldrank » Thu Oct 29, 2015 12:09 pm

I killed this buck last Sunday on the stateland by my house. I scouted the area out in the winter and found some really nice bedding areas deep in the state game area. The beds are protected on 3 sides by water and marsh. I waited for a nice calm cold day with a good wind. I got in nice and early and took my time getting in quietly. I wasnt in my stand 15 minutes when he came running down the edge of the marsh. I stood up and stopped him with a mouth grunt and took the shot at 25 yrds. I double lunged him and he went maybe 100yrds. This area get hammered by hunters and I feel pretty good about getting in there and taking this buck.

This was the parking area... there is another one on the other side of the rd that had 3 more cars in it.
