azbirdhunter88 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 So this morning while getting ready I saw this. I took the arrow out to replace with a new one and realized it sunk all the way in that deer last night. How did it back out so far? I was in a hurry to get him out of that river before it got dark so didn’t really pay much attention. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

high rise hunter Report post Posted November 11, 2020 That's a fantastic buck! I love those polished knobs around his bases. Crazy he licked the tree you were in and still had no idea you were there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm definitely going to add it to my midwest whitetail pack. I'll take every edge I can get. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like I said first year I’ve used it. It comes in a stick like deodorant. I put it on my boots as I walk in and all over the tree I’m in. I found a scrape with a branch above and man they would stop and just go to town on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I see they also have an aerosol version but I think the deodorant stick may the better route. Seems to me it might "wear out" once applied at a slower pace than the spray.

azbirdhunter88 Report post Posted November 12, 2020 It was blowing wind bad when we got up this morning so decided to drive some properties and just look at new deer that have moved in during this rut. Nothing special on a few until we hit one of our cut corn fields with CRP grass along the edges. I was glassing a few hundred yards off and seen a deer with head down moving like a vacuum. Thought it was a doe feeding until his head came up and told wife get your chit ready cause you need to kill this deer. We walked along the tall CRP grass until we were 100 yards from him. We waited and he kept feeding towards us getting closer and closer getting 40 yards away. I asked if she was on him and she said yes but he then kept coming our way just sniffing the ground hard. Finally the buck stopped at 8 yards and when I looked over at her all I heard was a swack and that buck took off. Went 30 yards and stood there looking at us for a few seconds then tipped over deader than dead. She tucked it right behind his shoulder and got a perfect heart shot. More pics to come as it’s freezing here and we were trying to hurry. 6 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But looking at your pics you could have convinced me that you killed a monster coues. Is That color normal? Oh, and btw, congrats! Ok we got you an orange one just cause you were curious. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
