Well tag one of two is now filled.
Had a horrible day at work and last thing I wanted to do was be around people so I decided to head to the timber at 4 after work. Decided to go to a stand that my friend and I had hung a few years prior. The next year he passed away in a traffic accident as he was heading to school.
As I am walking to the stand there is already a doe under the stand and I thought I had blown it. I had been reading on here a lot about guys saying that hunting in a light rain is ideal. So I decided to stick it out and sit for the evening. 5 pm comes around and it is starting to get a little dark so I knock the antlers together for a bit and next thing I know this guy is coming towards me. Any other stand I probably would not have shot this buck as he is not very wide at all. However, he does have 12 points one which is broken off. This was a very emotional kill for me as it is out of the stand that we had hung several years back and I wanted to take a deer from the stand in his memory.
So this deer is for my friend Cody.
Not the biggest buck I have ever shot but this one by far means the most to me.
One tag down still got the landowners tag left for bow.
Sorry for not having a decent picture. It was dark when I decided to start tracking him. I plan on doing a skull mount with it.
