So the first day of Illinois shotgun season was wet and warm.. I didn’t see anything that interested me in the slightest. I hunted a farm that has some giants on it but had to much pressure so this morning I switched farms to a stand I average a lot of inches per sit….
It’s a spot 95 percent of hunters would walk right past…. But it produces and produces…. It is a perfect place for a big buck serial killer to sit….
So this buck has been mature, heavy horned and huge body since 2020. He made a fatal mistake of getting down wind of my Maniac 150 drag rag before getting down wind of me…. First light here he come working the field edge cover straight towards me….
I glassed him and immediately reached for the old T/C Pro-Hunter cambered in Federal 12 gauge Trophy Copper Blastic-tip…
At about 12 yards at 10 o’clock I squeezed the trigger and boom he fled and crashed quickly 35 yards in front of me to my west…
Short hunt…. Perfect weather so i saved my best spot for perfect weather conditions…. The old warrior isnt quite as big as last year but a fine trophy for me! Now time to focus on the one here at home…. Stay tuned for him!

and it was a spot my buddy's thought was nuts. 535" later They realized I wasn't so dumb after all.
