This years Buck has named himself. I was in the stand this morning at 7;30 when I heard something walking through the leaves to my right. As I slowly turned I see a white/tabby cat walking down the trail, under my stand, and off behind me. I relaxed a few minutes and heard the leaves rustling again. I turn and expected the cat, but instead this guy is walking by my stand on the trail. Thus the name. I grabbed my bow and got ready. I didn't expect to get a shot as I figured he would follow the trail and cross the nearby road, but instead he turned and walked right in front of me at 15 yards. I drew back and let the arrow fly. I hit him back a little and he ran off so I give him tome to expire. Went out and found him dead about 100 yards from where I had last seen him. No Monster but a very solid deer with awesome mass and a 9" brow tine. He has great character and everything but width. Another Great season in Iowa!
