not bow but rifle
AFTER SEEING PRACTCALLY NOTHING FOR 13 DAYS
Watched this guy bed before sunrise (about 15 min. Before)
Got a hold of my son Nick and met with him...told him all most exactly where he bedded down (in crp grass) devised a plan for Nick to walk in and I would set in my van the way I figured he would go....for once a plan worked and he got up and came and he was shot...love it when a plan comes together...not the hugest rack but I never saw one with a bigger neck...Nick says he is shrunk up also....been running does for about 3 week so he was burning body mass and not eating..even this am he was like he was ruttin (rut here is over) and never ate/fed...see what them females do to a guy lol
He had a broken back leg (looked like a few years old and healed...looked
Like bones healed crooked/side by side) so maybe took more calories for him to run
Browtine and droptine were both broken off
thanks to my wife for helping me get going everyday..5:30 mornings are over for a week and then muzzleloader starts and run till end of Jan. maybe 1 more?..and for son Nick for gutting etc.
Anyway probably last deer for me?

Nice that your plan worked, we have taken 4 deer and one moose so far don't need anymore but with one more tag to fill am going out in the morning. It's just nice to be out there!

Way to get it done!
Putting time in the stand so late in the season isn't often productive and can really shut me down most times.
Way to go
