Brow tine Report post Posted December 28, 2011 This is a pick of my first coues with a muzzleloader or any fire arm for that matter. I glassed him up thur. the 8th. Opening morning came and we only saw some does and smaller bucks. the second morning my son allmost had a shot at a 4x5 coues with his bow,the doe was drinking at tweny yards with the buck coming in when a semi passed on the dirt road. lol tuff luck. My brother,son,and i found the buck from thursday on sunday afternoon. I put a stalk on him and as i came over the hill his 2 does and a fork spoted me. They had me pined,I sat in a stareing match for allmost 5 min. till this buck started moving down twards the does,he had no idea i was there. I shot him at 75 yds. just wanted to say thank u to those who gave me some advice and to all of u who post. it shure gets u excited before the hunt and gives u something to do when ur going stir crazy those couple days leading up to ur departure. thanks again. And a special thanks to my Brother,Dad,and Son for all the help and making this trip so enjoyable 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
