After seeing zip at my home yesterday AM I moved to the creek stand I got set up about 1 pm after sometime in the stand I swore I heard a buck grunting so i gave a few back I grabbed my bow stood up I no more than stood up and he was right in front of me looking for me I let it rip went down through his back caught the top of one lung and the bottom of the other I must of hit or caused enough shock to his spine he hit the dirt and never moved Not the biggest deer but I’m happy for the gift I believe mom will be selling this spring summer so this maybe my last deer from there What really makes this deer special to me is dad never really hunted but he’d go if I’d dragged him along probably 20 some years ago I built him a box blind to sit in he’d go back smoke a pack drink a thermos of coffee and tell me ain’t no deer back there idk and I never ask but honestly I don’t think he ever took a gun with him my creek stand is probably 25 feet away from we’re that blind was maybe not but I felt like he was looking out for me yesterday

Way to get her done Treetop!
That hanging buck has got to be the biggest I ever seen. Hope you get to weigh that brute. Mine was 190# dressed, and looks like a runt compared to that dude!

Just had 3 bucks chasing 2 does. Grunting and chasing in circles. Couldn't get a shot of at any of them. Lmao Those 2 does with 3 bucks in tow just wouldn't freakin stop. I yelled at the top of my lungs but to no avail. Little buck was in third, med size was 4th and big one was lagging behind. I was on him till I ran out of window. Just pretend it's a clay bird. A LOT less lead though.

Wouldn't have helped as my swing was stopped by the windows end just as I was ready to give him the good news.

I wasn't seeing anything so I got down early and headed to my parents yard. As I rounded the corner of their garage a huge doe saw me and bolted. I think tomorrow I'll be sitting on their front porch about an hour before dark.

I personally feel those who start on the first rung of the ladder have more appreciation for the animals, the land, the sport, and the experience. Congratulations to him on the srart of his journey, to your nephew for his evolution, and to you for getting to see the full circle of your passion.

Not live from the stand and a day late as I’ve been busy! But yesterday morning I tagged another ten point in my reduction zone spot! He wasn’t near as big as mine from last Sunday but he got my heart thumping so he went home with me! Now to help a farmer that lets me hunt his property with some does! Griffey lake next weekend for a couple does as well! I’m blessed this season!

Had an 8 run a doe right to me..literally!! I saw them across a field running around and I thought they were coming into this small field I was watching so I quickly climbed down the hill and got repositioned closer to the field. As I’m keeping an eye out for them to enter the field I hear something behind me and sure enough here they come 30 yds behind me. She started up the steep hill and turned midway and stopped. He followed her up the hill and stopped. He was literally staring at my backpack and seat cushion that I left there when I repositioned.
They ended up switching positions and then she was trying to smell my backpack. After a few minutes they continued on back the way they came. I turn around and look in the field and here comes another 8. He made it to 40 yds in front of me and was sniffing the air pretty heavily. He either smelled them or my scent drag. He was still standing there when I left starring at me. Fun evening!!

Got my buck over to the processor and then back home. Vacation over and back to my reality tomorrow morning. Couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. Two great bucks over the course of two weeks, good fun, good food, and good friends. Also, thank you for this great place to go and talk hunting or whatever else is on our minds. Certainly helps fill some time in the stand!
Well, good luck to all. Back to being a weekend warrior 😉
