hunting

A weekend I’ll never forget this is a long story but it’s a good one I think.

    Got a phone call from a buddy of mine Friday night asking me to come to the cabin he had no one to hunt with except the old guys that hunt there. So I decided pack my stuff up and head down there . Got up the next morning everyone’s deciding where they are gonna go sit. He looks at me and say I’m sitting with you so where are we going. So I asked them if they had put any two man stands up this year. The owner says yes he put one 50 yards from where I shot a spike the year before so I looked at him and said  that where we are going . So we get up there and we can’t find the stand it’s getting day light I start to freak out. It gets gray light as I decide to start backing out to the fire road when I noticed the stand down threw the woods. So we run down there climb up the stand and settle in. 18 minutes later I noticed some does moving right towards us up the mountain . They come in down wind and just start grazing on acorns. I start hearing some running off to the left told him to get ready I think there’s a buck coming. Soon as I say that up pop two does the one comes out and is staring right behind her. We hear a loud crash and a grunt and here he comes chasing another doe . I tell him buck get ready he can’t see him there’s  a tree in the way. The buck starts to make a scrap I’m trying to get my buddy to get a shot on him and he can’t . Because of the tree all the does turn and start going up the mountain . The buck turns and starts to go with them . When he stops I tell my buddy shoot him and he laughs and goes I still can’t there’s another tree. The does take off and the buck starts to run I meh at him three times nothing so I said screw it and tell “HEY DEER” . The buck comes to a stop and before I could say shoot the gun goes off he looked at me like I think I missed . All I could do was laugh that deer didn’t make it 40 yards over the hill and was down.  He made a perfect heart shot on a Beautiful National Forrest deer .I couldn’t of been happier to be with him especially since it’s his biggest to date . We had only sat in that stand for about 38 minutes before he shot that buck . It was definitely a blast and hoping to do it again next year .
