Had an opportunity to hunt in Indiana, and though its not a NY buck thought i would share since the experience was awesome. Took this buck with my Mathews bow on the second to last day of archery in west central Indiana on a property I was living on while in grad school at Purdue University. Chased him around for two years and he finally gave me a chance on a late afternoon cold front. 25 yards and my search was over. Now headed back to NY cant wait for the thanksgiving gun hunt. Nothing better than filling the freezer!

Hardly any shots in 8A and no deer seen by me. Beautiful morning to be out in the woods. Hard to pass up doing it again tomorrow.

Shot a doe at 15 yards (absurd, and here I have the new CVA paramount long range muzzleloader). So thank god the season long skunk is off and now I can focus on some horns. 
 

As of this morning the buck I attached a picture of is still alive. Had him at 40 during bow but a branch kept me from taking a shot. Would mind a chance at him with a gun.

Here’s a story we all know too well being hunters especially bow, yesterday behind my house I made it out late in the day actually the first time behind the house this year .. as I stalked out through the thick stuff I saw a big dead buck .. heart breaking, been there ,, never found a hole so I assumed it was a car kill .. because it was literally 100 yards behind the homes . After dark I went back in to grab his head after I got a road kill tag from a deputy. When I got him rolled over I started looking for a hole, found one ,, fixed broad head right shoulder forward ... after I got home I started calling local land owners I know well , asking if any one hit a good one? Well I found a younger guy that hunted a half mile east of me , I hooked up with the guy , his best friend that’s hunts with him , told me what side he hit the deer on ,on November 1st, this kid was hurting since then after loosing this beautiful buck ..well we surprised him , his buddy told him they were coming over to my place to ask permission to hunt , but he was overwhelmed when I told him I found his buck . Watching a grown man break down in tears was more rewarding than I can even say..I have a video of us surprising him with his first Pope and Young buck I wish I could load it up here to show you guys .. this is what it means to us all the time preparation,hrs in the woods..GOODLUCK to all through the rest of the season.

That is some rack!! Sad it could not be recovered sooner. Great work connecting the dots and getting the rack to the shooter. Bet he was sick. Nice story. [emoji1303]
