Got him!

Unread postby CountryboyNC » Sun Nov 17, 2013 12:24 pm

Well after a late start, getting home from the middle east on September 1. I got a few night time pictures of a nice 8 pointer for around here....

This morning was opening day of gun season and after setting my stands where some of you had suggested, I was able to close the deal, 10 minutes after sun rise got a perfect 25 yard broad side shot and the 12 gauge slug found its mark. Its my first nice buck and cant wait to get him home from the taxidermist and get an idea what he might score, I know its not great but I'm excited.

Thank you all for the help, and good luck this season!

Good job on the 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.
