A few specs.
This a deer we both are certain is a resident buck, we both also had eyes on him last fall. Each time a mask of saplings or terrain prevented a kill then.
For this year we adjusted the placement of a stand only about 175 yards. If not for this deer but just overall the typical movement of the does in this spot of woods. Several folds, saddles and ridges.
So this morn, we split up to cover two potential areas holding does. A yearling doe ran up a steep hill towards my stand, obviously body language revealed a push.
Still very brushy and leaf on in here, unusually late leaf drop.
Seen the rack coming through the shrubs at a slow walk. He pauses for about a minute only showing head, large gum tree blocking vitals. Just waited until vitals stepped into the site picture.
52 yards, angled front quartering, DRT, fell back and drum kicked in the leaves for a few secs.
Wasn’t sure if this was going to be a Lazarus situation, reloaded quick and waited. Not seeing the carcass just waited and waited to see if he had slipped below the terrain to resurface elsewhere.
Gave it 45 mins. Didnt call ren for 90 mins. Try to let him hunt cause I know he’d drop all and head to me. So Sandbilly and Hookeye got the jimmy olsen Lol
Savage 10ml - II
250 gr hornady (i know i know) xtp
MMP low pressure sabots
55 grain Vivht N-120
Good shooting man. If they weren't illegal out here I think I'd have to get one of those Savages.
A wise man is frequently humbled.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.
