Had thanksgiving with the family in the afternoon and two turkeys and a couple prime ribs to smoke, but figured I could squeeze in an early morning sit. I'm disabled so I just parked the van in the field and sat in a lawn chair.. was stiff this morning and didn't want to go into the woods and have a fall or something silly happen. Wasn't expecting much but this dude came out right after I checked the time and saw it was legal to shoot. Said my morning prayer and opened my eyes, he was trotting across the field right in front of me. Lined up on a big tree so I had a backstop and waited for him to enter my crosshairs. Folded him where he stood! Not the biggest rack I've shot, but definitely the biggest body. Dressed out over 260 pounds! I about never got him into the van.  |
