HEADACHE Report post Posted August 21, 2011 I took a new archer high school kid up to one of my honey holes Friday and today. We Hunted Friday hard saw lots of good bucks. Two great bucks. He got his 1st two shots at a little forky buck first thing Friday morning.... missed but man was he excited! This morning we were back up the mountain and saw lots of bucks. One great Buck...no shots...until.... I sent him on down to a different spot as I started working the mid level thick bedding ground stuff in my patented slow-motion stalk mode ha ha ... spotted this guy standing up from his bed. Clicked him at 67 yards. Downhill a touch. I shot him for 60 yards. He made the mistake of standing there just one second too long. Let the Mathews z7 do all the talking as I sent the rocket steelhead through front of both lungs and into this old rotten stump! Kersplat! I wasn't sure of the hit so I yanked up my bino's to try to watch for a hole in his chest.... or see how he reacted. I think that he was scared by the stump blowing apart right next to him cuz he was at full stride ... Buck jolted off at full speed and wrapped himself around a tree 45 yards later. My second velvet archery muley Buck and I couldn't be happier! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grizzly Report post Posted August 21, 2011 Wow that looks like a late July buck with those big round bulbs at the end of his antlers. Do they all have that much more to grow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HEADACHE Report post Posted August 21, 2011 Thanks guys. Ya I imagine they have a lot more growing to do up there still. They are soft and squishy bulbs. Seasons a bit early this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
