finally got buck down

Unread postby rack addict » Sat Nov 05, 2011 2:53 pm

Had this guy come in behind me, he was heading back and a couple of grunts turned him right back around. The shot was only about 10-12 yards but it was the best shot I have ever made on a deer. I just got those g5 strikers and am impressed! Shot it right through the heart and came out the shoulder about 8 inches. Blood everywhere easy track job took me about 5 minutes to find him. He maybe went 50 yards. The best part of it all is I got it on my roscoby riser cam! I'll post some pics tomorrow of the heart and the shot. He's not a giant but he's a descent one. I know that most guys here would probably have passed him but I had to put one down. Last year I only had one buck encounter the whole season and I hunted from oct.1 to jan 1. Tough season! Also it seems when its time to hit the trigger i fold under the pressure so it was nice to actually go through the process and do everything right.

Good job and nice buck.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.
