Some of you may remember a thread I posted last year about a buck my Dad shot out of a unique blind setup in the back of a trailer. Well...he's at it again!! The truth is, I'm pretty sure this is at least the 3rd buck to fall to the decoy and trailer blind, and I don't think Dad actually hunts anywhere else these days 
Dad is now 78, and a number of years ago gave up the compound and tree stands for a crossbow and ground blinds. Good move!! As a reminder, here's the unique trailer blind setup, and the deadly decoy nicknamed Angus.
If I heard him correctly, a new feature of the blind this year is the addition of an electric heater courtesy of a long extension cord from the house.
Friday morning I was getting ready for work around 7:30 when I saw the caller ID on my phone show an incoming call from Dad's cell. At that time of day I had a pretty good idea what it meant, and sure enough, the decoy and liberal use of a grunt tube had brought in another good one. A solid double lunger and Dad watched the dandy 9 pointer crash after a short run.
My step mom watched the entire hunt transpire from the kitchen windows and could see the blood pouring out of him as he ran across the lawn. They had given this buck the name Uneven based on a couple of trailcam pictures they'd gotten of him earlier.
Anyway, Dad (waterman) can fill in more of the hunt details if he wants, but congrats on another outstanding buck!
