Archery White-tail down!
« on: September 19, 2012, 09:38:03 PM »
Pulled a great stalk on this buck in the open Palouse Wheatland.  Took me 2 plus hours to get within 50yards of him (with 3 other bucks).  My shot was a little back and he headed for a draw with thick brush. Honestly I think he flinched and began to run before my arrow arrived!  I was able to get a good vantage point where I could see if he left that cover.  After waiting over an hour I began looking for him. This stuff was over 6 feet tall.  Well not much of a blood trail to follow so I just systematically covered it and finally found him an hour later!  I am happy I was able to find him; I was beginning to have doubts!!!

Good looking buck, congrats.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

You might want to hunt up the guy on the Quadtrac in the background and thank him for feeding the very nice buck for all those years.  Lots of garbs and winter wheat laying there.
