will he be back

Unread postby buckybeaton » Fri Nov 07, 2014 3:39 am

Had a great hunt 11 days ago except for final outcome. had nine bucks of all age classes come up on me that morning. Shot a big, mature buck but 22 ft high and only 14 yds. Think I clipped top of opposite lung. Not much of a blood trail and four of us searched for hours with a dog. Didn't recover him. Still bothering me and hopefully he survived. Going back down to my club in south Alabama next week. Will have been about two and a half weeks since hunt. Do you beast fellas think it's even worth trying again ? I went back the next day myself and looked some more for him. We buggered up the area pretty bad I'm afraid

I doubt it seriously. But that does not mean another buck may show up.
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.

Go with your gut. It won't hurt to try.
