Forker, not a corker!
« on: October 24, 2013, 07:24:58 PM »
Well after 12 days of hunting, and a lot of does and a few spikes I just couldn’t pass up on this forky! I actually didn’t have much time to think about it really. The heavy fog forced me to hunt the timber. Still hunting along I heard a squirrel start barking a ways off. Thinking that there was no way he had heard me or seen me I held up and waited for a while. About 3 minutes later I hear some sticks break and see two deer running through the woods to me, they look like does. 15 feet away the lead doe stops and sees me and I realize the back one is a buck. The doe takes a hard right and the buck ( never brings his head up, never more then 3 feet off the doe) follows suit. 20 feet later and one shot from the .300 and i have my first blacktail! Super excited! All I have to say is don’t give up, it happens just like that.

Congrats on a nice buck!!
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

Sarcasm: The ability to insult stupid people without them realizing it. 

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.
