I've been hunting this property for 3 years. The first year out there 8 blew it on a big 6 point. Earlier this season I missed a little bit smaller 8 point and then finally last night this guy stepped out. Didn't see him until he was about 60 yards away. walked a perfectly straight line from right to left never getting any closer than about 50 yards ( i had my crossbow) and then just when i thought he was gonna hop a small creek and disappear he turned and made a beeline for me. shot him at about 25 yards. This is my biggest buck so far...and only my 3rd with the crossbow

Nice deer Brad

Those Dekalb racks always look darker to me....wonder why that is?

You do know you don't have to wear your orange in a bow-only co. don't you?

Congrats on a fine buck...........:cheers:

i know what you mean about the racks...

i know about the orange but last year we stumbled on a trespasser hunting with a shotgun so i'd rather not take any chances...i always take it off once i get in the tree but walkin to and from i'm wearin it...
