Finally Got Er' Done...

Recommended Posts

I finally got my second coues buck with a bow after 3 weeks of work. I sat a tree stand during the freezing cold waiting for a specific buck I had in mind to come in. Long store short my buddy shot a 118" from a stand that was 400 yards away from mine on the first week of January. I was happy for him but jealous as well. I saw many deer but not the chocolate horned I wanted.

My pig tag was expiring in a couple days so I decided to give up on the tree stand idea and glass a field that I have seen pigs in many times. As I was walking a wash, I saw a "body". It was a massive 100" for sure and he was 80 yards plus with a doe. As I creeped up to try and get 20 more yards on him, this small 3 point popped up to 60 yards staring right at me. I thought about it and let the arrow fly at 60 yards and absolutely drilled him. I honestly had no idea how many points he had other than I knew he wasnt a spike. I have never been so proud of a deer Ive shot even though he is not very big at all. It broke the 65 Inch barrier barely so that puts even a bigger smile on my face.

It makes me laugh how much time I put into what I thought would work (tree stand) and end up killing a buck while not even trying for deer. That is why we love hunting isnt it?post-5667-0-68324600-1359078604_thumb.jpg

Great job! Ive been hunting for 8 days already and havent been able to tag a deer yet. I tagged a pig on opening day and could of easily tagged another one if I wanted to but I guess thats part of the game. Congratulations!

I use a 3 blade muzzy 100 grain. I've shot 2 deer, elk, and 4 pigs with it and and it flys through every time. Never used anything else to compare but they have never failed me yet.
