Well wow.. got out this morning and I just knew I picked the right day. Frost on the pumpkin, crisp air, calm wind... just one of those days.
Got in my stand, laid out a scent trail of Harmons Triple Heat along a path with scrapes and put out my PHamtom HD buck decoy.
730 am I saw that sign that lets you know its almost "on".. doe comes barreling through the woods all over with the tail up and cocked.
Then about ten till 8 am I reached into my pack to grab my breakfast, a Cliff Bar and right there was a buck I named Brutus Beefcake, because of his huge body, flared up, stomping and wheezing at my decoy and circling.
Got the video camera going, got some pre footage but not much as I knew from previous years the buck will circle my decoy and I wasn't going to miss the shot on this buck this time ( anyone remember that 2012 video ?)
Stopped him behind the decoy and let him have a Rage Extreme. Shot looked a little high, but seeing as this is my 50 plus deer I've shot with my bow I knew he was hurt bad. He ran about 80 yards into the woods and stopped.. I did not see him go down but had that feeling.
Stayed in the stand till 10:30 amd and was treated to 3 more bucks and several doe along with the always common dozen or so squirrels...
Brutus beefcake in my food plot early october, look at that neck
green scored 131 even gross, better yet field dressed at 221 lbs
