My wife and i drew the same whitetail hunts.... oct 25th but different units.. I was trying to figure how to do them both on the one weekend.. I was finishing up my archery hunt up north when i came across this little buck so i though if he gives me a shot i will take it and be done with my hunt so in Oct we can focus on her.... well i had no idea how this evening was going to turn out. while trying to get a shot @ this small 2 point a bigger buck that was laying down jumped up, WOw i had not seen a buck that big in years ... tried to stalk him but he was on to us... so went off and about 1 hour or so later we ended up on a road above where we had jumped this buck, so we parked the ranger and walked over and down the hill about 100 yards or so, i just glassed the forest floor............ and HOLY crap there he was bebbed down abot 85 yds away... wind in my face i started the stalk got to 64 yds... ranged a tree in front of me that was 30 yds ... ok if i could get to that tree i would have about a 35 yd shot.... half way there he turned around we had a stairing match..... he turned back i took another step, he looked again... ok i thiught this is it... if he turnes around where i cant see his eyes i am goint to step aside the only little tree that was in front of me and pull back......he turned i stepped out and pulled back he stood up and i drilled him.... Holy cow.... i could not believe it... good stick we found him about 75 yds down the hill..... I Am still hook on whitetail but i finally got my big Muley... so now we can focus on my wifes hunt in Oct... JB

Man oh man!

Great archery buck!

It's great to have found him again with the wind in your face. You had a heck of a great time playing cat and mouse. Just you and him, that's what it's all about right there. Hunting at its finest.

 

I would have dropped him too. Now you get to help your wife on her hunt!
