I almost didn't go out Saturday evening because I only had 45 minutes to hunt but it was worth it. I had one foot on the treestand when I saw him movin through the brush. I finnished getting in the tree and then had the Awsome feeling of being in a treestand with a buck at 30 yards and my bow on the ground tied to a string. Well, amazingly I pulled the bow all the way up with him only looking at the bow spinning on the string a couple times. When he stomped the ground I was sure he caught my wind. With the wind swirling he was on high alert so I nocked up and drew back. At 20 yards and head on with a slight angle I put the arrow between his neck bone and shoulderblade. He took off and I went home. Next morning I came back with my 16 month old, brother and dad. We found the buck 50 yards away, my 85# bowtech took out 1 lung, the diaphram and threw some gut and came out the other side.

How come he has three antlers in the last picture?

The third antler is a shed I found from him last year. His back tine gets narrow then rounds to a point, the exact same from the year before.

Cool story and pic. How was the meat leaving him overnight? Anything sour? Just curious.

Great decision to get out there, that's a dandy blacktail for sure.

Thanks, and the meat was good, I had some butterfly backstrap steaks the next day and getting the rest in pepperoni and breakfast sausage. Tastes better than plastic paper tag. I found the shed prior to shooting him and since I knew the buck, I brought the shed with me the next day.
