Title: Tuesday Buck Down
Post by: Jrod79 on October 15, 2013, 08:57:58 PM
Got this guy today. My first buck! I've always wanted to hunt and decided to in February this year. Got my hunters safety knocked out and started scouting. Yesterday I had a few hours to spare so I went to an area I hadn't been to yet and saw this guy. Air mailed one passed him yesterday and didn't get a second shot. I was so excited and shaking so dang bad!

Went out early this morning. We were on our bikes for 2 miles. First cut we came to we got on some deer. Before we could get close enough to get a better look the fog rolled in and we could hardly see 20 yards. We bailed. My hunting partner and I went our separate ways. I figured I'd hit that cut from yesterday see if I could get on this buck again.

Got to the cut and moved through it real slow. Got to the top, sat down, and started glassing. I first saw his tail twitch while his head was down. He eventually looked up and I knew I had to get him, but he moved into the trees and was gone. 20 minutes later I saw him again, broadside, and down he went!

 You're off to a good start; patience and persistance. Nice buck. He's about as big as my first one in California but mine only had a 3/8" fork on one side to make him legal. You're hooked now!

Congrats and welcome to Hunt WA!!    :tup:


I like the "Air mailed one passed him yesterday and didn't get a second shot."

My story was I was just giving them a warning shot and the chance to surrender...   :chuckle:

Yes it is. Didn't know it was in the pic till someone said so. My buddy made the trip to me after I shot the deer to literally celebrate with a cold one with me and run. Ran back to his truck to get back to what he was doing. And he left some extras for me. True friend!
