rimhunter Report post Posted December 4, 2007 Went out this afternoon to check on how many november deer hunters had gone into one of my favorite archery spot and from the tracks it looked like no one had invaded my sacred hunting ground . I decided to go and check the spring to see how many deer tracks were there. half way down to the spring i noticed there was something white close to the spring as i got closer I could tell it was deer hair scattered all over it looker like a war had happened there .the spring runs into a cement holding tank for the cattle and deer to drink out of when I looked in it the water was blood red and had hair in it . I seen where the lion had drug the deer out of the tank and down the wash . I followed and 100 yards down the wash I found what was left of a 90 inch coues drug under a tree and somewhat covered up . I had this deer come into my blind twice this year but dident have a shot . was hopening next year I would get a chance at him but I guess thats not going to happen . This deer has split brow tines on both sides thats how I know its the same deer that came to my stand . Im going back tomarow and take pic . one of the only times I dident have a camera or my phone with me . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willhunt4coues Report post Posted December 4, 2007 Man that is disappointing. I know you were after one but is that the same one you were after? Come by the shop and I have a doe in distress audio tape that maybe you can call that sucker in to kill him . Or if you like you can take me there and i will get rid of him myself. .
