Walking in Sunday morning could hear the chasing in the beech nut leaves. Walking across woods could hear them running follow by soft grunts. So I just stop and put the stand up. About 8 am seen a doe sneak into the thicket. I Keep doing some soft grunts, About 8:45 all of a sudden heard what I thought was a bulldozer coming Thur the thick stuff. AS I pick up my bow I could see tines coming out of brush. As he step into my opening at 22 yards connected my muzzy into him. As he ran seen my lighted up nock in him.I knew it was a low shot but was buried right up to fleches. As i was trying to text my buddy I could not keep from shaking. With my buddys help he got me to wait 2 1/2 hrs. Thought it was a heart shot but waited. We had all day and did not want to push him. We went back in found him 70 yards from shot. Hit bottom of heart. Took him to taxidermist, but did not score him yet. 17 3/4 speard, with hide gutted and head weight was 184 on my scale. Butcher him yesterday ended with 70lbs of meat! One pic is some vension bacon back straps mmmm!
