So I finally get a day to hunt with the boy ....the wife had to work and I decided I was going to take Ted into the honey hole ...We get up early and get to the gate about a half hour before light ...No one there ... then someone pulled up behind us and ask which way we were headed ....He then turned around and left ...Now that's the kinda hunter I like Now it goes down hill from here As soon as I enter the unit I look below us and Huge freakin buck !!!! I tell Ted there he is and he gets on a stump and before I could even get the binos to my eyes BOOOOOOOOOOM ...the deer just stands there Did not more an inch ....I start freaking out ...You shot over him ...the deer then starts for the timber ...on a fast trot ....BOOM again ....You are shooting high Teddy .....BOOM AGAIN HE IS GONE ....this is the 1st deer he has ever missed... but I guess that's the way it goes ....I told him this morning to take the 300 because he killed his bear with it and just maybe it would bring him some good luck I had a feeling today was the day ....No fog ....and these units have not been looked at in weeks ....the fog has been soooo thick you could not hunt this area ... This buck was the one to be showing off but it was not meant to be .....I will be taking the wife out this evening and maybe since they are rutting he just might show his face again ......This was the spot I was saving for my wife and she is not happy But you have to look at it this way ...if you do not go and kill it someone else will DANG IT MAN I JUST HOPE ONE STEPS OUT FOR HER TONIGHT OR TOMORROW !!!!
