Jiminy, what a deer season. I got a goodun with my muzzleloader & then this...

Last night I hunted a buddy's cow pasture & saw a pretty darn good buck. It was getting pretty dark & I didn't have enough light to accurately judge him, so I let him go. I called him and told him about it and this morning he took his brother over there & they got a shot at the buck. He told me the buck was a REALLY big deer & I should've shot him last night. I was pretty disappointed, especially since the buck wasn't killled, but I figured I might get a chance at him another time. Well tonight my buddy's dad wanted to sit that stand, and he'd seen a monster out of his stand the day before. None of us could figure out why he didn't want to sit his own stand, where the big buck was spotted... but oh well. We traded & I went to his tower. Thank God. I only saw one deer all night, but it was the biggest buck I've ever shot at. I spotted him at first from about 600 yards away & knew he was a shooter. When you know they're big from that far away, then that deer is NO JOKE!!!! Anyway, he was south of me & headed west.... bad deal. Then he saw my pickup and turned and headed directly north to me..... great deal. I had to sit there and watch this big boy amble through the chest-high crp grass until he presented me a shot. I didn't take the shot until he was about 70 yards. He dropped in his tracks. He's a 10 pointer with a split brow tine on his left side. If his right side matched his left, he'd be 150+. Oh well, I'm certainly proud of the rascal.
