Hey all
This week end will go down in the memory for me forever.
It was a normal get up at four am and get ready for hunting. With everything ready. Climbing stand, back pack and my trusty PSE bow.
I have this spot I go to check the wind direction and made my decision to go to one of my favorite spots the wind was from the west to southwest. I get the stand all set and climb the tree. Pull the back pack up and set it up and finally bring the bow up. Man could I go for a coffee! I settle for a bottle of water and a power bar.
I'm chewing on the power bar and sipping the water and look over at the bush about 50 yards from me and see a flash of white. Antlers?
I watch and yes he is walking towards me. I can not believe my eyes one of the bucks I have been watching for the last three years is finally going to walk right too me. He has twelve points this year I figure he weighs about 250lbs.
Yup he is now 12yds from me. The sad part is the moon is full and its 0530 in the morning 1hr before I can legally shoot. The moon was so bright this weekend I was able to travel close to three miles in the bush never touching the flashlight. I saw 15 bucks this week end all before it was light ;D
What an incredible feeling to finally get as close to one of the big bucks I have studied for the last three years. I'm just hoping I can figure him out so I can shoot him.
I'll keep you posted on the rest of the season!
