I was fortunate enough to take this buck at 8:15am this morning over here in Ohio. I have a buddy from work who just got back into hunting the last couple of years and has invited me to hunt some of his family's property. Well we went out last week and set some ground blinds up as about 95% of the property is ag fields. We had another coworker that was supposed to go with us but had a family emergency and backed out. I wound up setting where he was supposed to be and as soon as it got daylight I seen a buck walking the cut bean field. This buck went away from me and into a small block of timber. Approximately 8:05 or so I hit my estrous can while reading my book. I look up and this buck is crossing the field to my left at about 130 yards or so. I dialed my scope up and settled the cross hairs behind the shoulder and fired. He tucked his tail and started to run, not sure if I hit him or not I fired again. Well he made it about 80 yards and did a nose dive. Took out part of the heart and lungs. What shocked me was his neck and body size, they were HUGE. He was also a fighter: scarred up nose, ear, and eyes. Not my biggest but I've got my eye on some pretty decent bucks in Indiana that I'd like to get back on. Hopefully this is my future hunting partner in the pic with me.
