Pine Donkey Report post Posted October 29, 2012 Spent this weekend hunting with my wife, Chrystie and daughter Laurie, with the help of our son Garrett, friends Mark (MJE1) and Cody. We had been watching several bucks for the last couple weeks. We were able to find them in the same area until last Thursday when we discovered they were hanging out in a neighboring unit. We found them in that unit again on Friday and Saturday. We watched each day as hunters pursued them, but never heard any shots. At first light this morning Mark found them again, and they had returned to our unit. Garrett and Laurie took off after them. They could not get closer than 368 yards, so Garrett set his .270 on the mount he made. She took a practice shot at 368 yards and another at about 390. The buck stopped briefly at 400 yards and Laurie dropped him. Chrystie and Laurie Garrett, Cody and Laurie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tjhunt2 Report post Posted October 29, 2012 Robert, I couldn't wait to get home from work tonight so I could show Peggy Laurie's buck and to congratulate her. I would love to see one like that on my hunt coming up. It couldn't have happened to a nicer young lady. I'm so happy for her and to have the family all there just makes it all that much better. The pictures are great and so was the story. Thanks for sharing. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cramerhunts Report post Posted October 29, 2012 Congratulations on a great buck! I love the wide frame on that bad boy, I bet it was hard watching and waiting for him to come back into Laurie's unit. Congratulations again on a great family hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
