Unfortunately I lost this deer for a little over a month due to the terrain and an antsy trigger finger on the release. He crossed a creek on me twice and we lost blood. I never gave up looking for him because I knew it was a kill shot and he couldn’t be to far from where we lost blood. Found him crawled up under a down tree top where I had drug out another smaller buck during the 9 day gun hunt within 10 yards of him! 16 scoreable points with one being just shy of an inch making him 17 points. Waiting on a score and age of the buck. Get wet guys thats where the big boys hide!

It was Monday Morning and i really wanted to be in my treestand because the rut was in full swing in Wisconsin. I wasn’t able to hunt because the farmer whos land I hunt had asked me to help spread manure on his field. As I was driving the tractor on a trail through a patch woods, I happened to see a doe only 20 yards of the tractor trail with a nice tall rack buck at her side. All I could do was stare in awe as they just watched me drive by. Hoping he would stick around I returned to a Stand close to the area where I saw the buck. After passing up two small bucks I decided to use my grunt call. One sequence of grunts and I had a shooter buck come charging out of the swamp! He walked 10 yards in front of me and I let the arrow fly. I didnt get a good look at him but after a short trailing job I found my buck and it just happened to be that buck I had seen that morning while I was on the tractor. He was a massive 7pt with a 16.5 inch spread and dressed out at 200lbs. What an awesome day in the woods!

I had this buck show up on camera 2 weeks previous to bow opener. I targeted this deer as one of the top three to harvest this year with a bow. He showed up on the 17th of Sept. around 7PM. He started to fight with a medium size 8 pointer and I decided to take him at that time. While he was fighting, I had no shot, so I had to sit down on the ladder of my stand to get a shot. I ranged him at 27 yrds. broadside shot, and I let the arrow loose. He hunched up and ran back into the thicket. It kind of stinks that I filled my buck tag right away, but he is an awesome buck. He weighed 247 lbs field dressed.

This was my first whitetail ever. The neighbor walked in at seven. There was three
deer, two came thirty yards. I shot the large doe and passed on the other small one.
Later dad kicked up that same deer and I shot it fifty yards in the very thick
sapplings.

I took my 12 week old Lab pup out for her first hunt. I went along with two buddies
of mine to a pheasant farm to get his two labs some off-season work. Not knowing
how my pup would do with everything I didn’t take a gun, just my video camera. She
did great. She wasn’t phased by the gun shots and ran through the 12″+ snow for an
hour and a half. I got all four kills on video so when I figure out how to get it
on here I will. I can’t wait for duck season next fall!!

Saw this webbed 7 point buck opening morning in the back 50 acre woods behind our
house. Took the first shot when it was running straight at me at a hundred yards and
when that didnt slow it down, i took another shot at 50 yards when it was broadside
of me, which dropped it right in its tracks. I got out of my stand to see a seven
point buck with 4 pts on one side and on the other were 3 large tines that were
webbed.

Well this hunt started out a lot worse then it ended. We got 12 guys together to
make drives during the gun deer season. One of my buddies had a new spot he wanted
to drive, so we started there first thing in the morning. Well this proved to be a
mistake. I made the drive and it turned out to be way wetter than expected. The
ice was just not quite thick enough for us to walk on and we all ended up getting
soaked up to our wastes’. It was 20 degrees and 10-20 mph winds. The rest of the
day was bond to be miserable. Well the next drive I climbed a tree and shot a doe.
Then the next drive I went and climbed a tree again. I had to sit there for over an
hour in the cold and wind before they even started the drive because a guy shot a
doe on the walk to begin the drive. I was absolutley FROZEN. Ice was forming on my
pants and boots. I was a minute away from saying screw it and going back to the
truck. But it turned out to be worth it. This buck came out at 60 yds, I unloaded
all 5 shots at him from 60 to 125 yds. I never saw him go down because it was too
thick. I ended up hitting him 3 times and died just out of view. This is my best
buck with a rifle and one of the most miserable hunts I’ve ever had, but it was
worth it. I love hunting!!!
