Must have hit a nerve... Again, No class & definately not a intelligent reply. What dimwitted response will you use next... I bet when you were a little boy, you called the bullies names in class & then ran home to momma to keep from getting your ass kicked. Geezus, get some vagisil and shut the hell up !

buster,
That's a great buck! I love it when a plan comes together like that especially when you're tracking one down. One of the most satisfying experiences you can have in hunting IMO.

he fallowed a brook for a long time , 400 yds maybe? it made it hard to hear but it was snowing like hell anyways and that also made it tough to hear, or see far. Thinking that perhaps this was where that buck made his mistake. There are a couple lessons in that sentence. Obviously many different ways to arrive at the ending of having a picture of a successful Deer hunt, and methods can vary with ones location. However, for us from the East, that is a great example of Whitetail hunting at its best. Unfortunately with tree stands-many that resemble mini-camps with sliding windows, propane for heating and cooking and even a few with a bed-having found fertile soil even here in the birth place of the Whitetail, fewer will experience such an accomplishment. Keep the tradition alive.

This is the last buck I killed via tracking (3 years ago). Shot him in his bed at about 60 feet. Certainly not in the class of skybuster's father's deer but I was happy with him. I killed 3 bucks in consecutive years within 100 yards of that knoll and somewhere in the neighborhood of 7-8 deer in the same general area. Unfortunately it is now a clearcut.

Saw this buck as I eased over the top of a hill. He was walking dead away and started easing left behind a bunch of Hackberry trees, so I couldn't get a shot. I back tracked and eased out on a finger ridge that was above him and parallel to what I thought would be his line of travel. Had some luck as he actually passed below me about 75 yds in a bottom. Knowing the lay of the land you are still hunting is a big advantage.

No tracking involved, but I was walking up the middle of this stream which took away his hearing:

One during Deer season and one close by while scouting or Grouse hunting. Can't remember which.

Beautiful woods and deer there.
