There are bigger on my camera, but I couldn't pass! He's actually a 9, small sticker on left brow tine. Now I can concentrate on the Fall Brawl [emoji16]
congrats on a great deer that I doubt many of us would have passed. and getting the trail cams pics of him too is just icing on the cake. Any story to go with it? was he checking any does or come into any calling? I love the little details of the hunt.
There's not much of a story on this guy unfortunately! I've had him on camera since mid September. I'm urban hunting a perfect piece of property. It's absolutely LOADED with deer! I put down some corn every now and then in front of my camera so I can see what lives there. Well I put down some corn the day before. Got into the stand around 4:25pm, within a half hour I was surrounded by does, baskets and yearlings. At 5:30 this guy walked in at about 10-15yrds. I took a few pics and a short video and sent it to my buddy Mark who was hunting about 80yrds away. He basically told me since you've never taken a big buck, that'd be a nice one! I agreed and proceeded to double lung him. He went about 35yrds and dropped. I proceeded to shake for the next hour until I climbed down and got my hands on him ! He's now at the taxidermist! Sorry, boring story!!
there's never anything boring about a successful deer hunt story. I enjoy reading about any hunt even a doe hunt as long as there's some details about the hunt. its great that he only went 35 yrds and you didn't have to track him. most of my gun shot deer go farther than 35 yrds.
