couesdeerhntr Report post Posted October 27, 2012 sorry for the late post but have been busy with work and my wedding that i am about to have next month. this buck was shot in august during the opening archery season. shot this buck at thirty yards over water. i had planed on trying to get my cousin a nice buck with his bow but after sitting for 30 hours total in the blind and with three misses he decided he needed to practice a little more because he just couldnt make the shot when the buck fever started kicking in.so we decided to back out of area for the day and come back in morning due to the wind swirling our scent around. showed up to our blind nice and early in the morning and waited for the sun to come up. as the sun was coming up i saw four bucks on top of hill feeding. watched them for a while and then the decided to head up over the hill. looked at my cousin and told him that those bucks are going to get some sun and will be back in a little bit. sure enough about an hour later here came the bucks from the top of the hill right down to us in single file. all of ther bucks fanned out on the waters edge and i picked the best of the bunch and let the arrow fly. fourty yards later and i had a dead deer. def worth the wait and my cousin got to experience what it was like to have a coues deer buck at less than ten yards of you instead off looking at them through glass at 300 yards. man did i hook him. he is not going to make that mistake again and is going to be ready for next year thats for sure.
