Ohio Public Land Buck

Unread postby SwampStalker » Mon Dec 07, 2020 7:03 am

Hit Ohio with a few buddies this year. As many of you know, early November came with some warm temperatures.The morning of November 10th was slow. i had not seen a single deer all morning. At about 10:30 I texted my friends saying the big guy needs to eat lol. I got a text back quick from both of them agreeing to go get something. It was 77 degrees and the prospect of killing a mature buck was not looking good. I didn't even get the phone back into my pocket and here came a doe over the saddle. And close behind was this tank. I quickly got the phone away and got the bow in hand. I stopped him at 20 yds and let the arrow fly. It hit perfect, the buck took off down into the bottom and I was able to watch him go down about 80 yds away. He ended up being my largest body buck at 220lbs dressed. And my 2nd biggest by antler size. For me there is nothing like getting it done on public Land.
