Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted January 24, 2008 I had the need...... to get bloody!!!! I have been hunting my butt off this January and the hunt is drawing to an end. My Hunting Partner (Jason Clay), and I began hunting a brand new area this month. Our two spots were about a quarter mile appart and the spot that I picked is shaping up to be another "Honey Hole".....Showing lots of sign of a BIG buck & good deer sign all around. I have hunted it a few days and so has Jason.... We have never not seen a deer while hunting that spot and last week Jason had a 3 buck day.... He saw the Monster, that we knew was there, but could not get a shot at the rutting Beast.... and he saw the buck I shot today, but passed knowing the bigger buck might come back at any moment. Jason said to me about the buck he passed on.... "I don't know if you can pass that buck up, man.... He is Sexy!" We have not seen that big buck again, but we know he is there somewhere..... Today I told myself that if this buck or the two larger bucks came back..... I was gunna get Bloody! When I saw him walking down the trail toward me I knew Jason was right! He is not a monster but he is a perfectly symetrical buck and I am Jazzed to end the Drought with him. No "Tag Soup" for me this Year!!! Thanks to my buddy, Jason, without him this season would not have been as fun or as successful!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues Sniper Report post Posted January 24, 2008 Congrats on a great buck Gino, he's sexy looking for sure. What's even more impressive is that you were actually able to put an arrow in him with a Matthews! . (Still waiting on that video of the 100 yard group by the way. ) Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tjhunt2 Report post Posted January 24, 2008 Gino, way to go! That is a dandy buck. Congrats and thanks for sharing. I will try one last time this weekend and would give anything to shoot one like that. A couple of weeks ago I was clearing a spot for my ground blind and making alot of noise and had a 3x3 run right up to me thinking I was two fighting. My bow was strapped on the bike. Just what I get. Again Congrats., Gino! That's a great way to start the year out. That new puppy has got to be your lucky charm but I know it wasn't luck to kill that buck. You worked hard for him I know. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted January 24, 2008 AWESOME! What happened to his front leg? I have heard of eating the heart of your kill, but not the kneecaps. Actually there is a Really good reason for that... The buck was walking when I took my first shot... solid liver shot and the buck was not spooked, he trotted around behind me and stood trying to figure out "what that was".... He offered another shot so I was shootin'!! The second shot was such an awkward and steep down shot that I could not get on my release..... so when it finaly went off, it went low through the bottom and sliced the opposite leg at the knee. I should have just waited him out, but I wanted him on the ground. The cool thing about this buck is that it is the first time I have ever shot a buck that I have on trail camera!
