First-light Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 So I have had my share of encounters with big bucks. This weekend was no different. I missed a nice one but this year I feel different for some reason. I'm not beating myself up or wishing I waited for a different shot. I missed, simple as that. Deer ducked the arrow I shot a bit high-story over. Now this deer was missing half its rack but was a real mature big boy that I still would of hung on my wall. I had a great weekend with my brother, we both saw deer and it was just wonderful to be at the cabin. I will be back up in two weeks to give it another try with my brother and the kid I mentored the last couple of years. I'll put him in my stand for the weekend and maybe, just maybe this story will have a bit of a twist.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doewhacker Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Burt, would you please mentor me and maybe steve863? Sounds like fun, its funny how the focus changes after a few years of hunting eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinson446 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 No it just goes to show you would rather see a kid take a Slammer buck and be hooked on hunting for the rest of his life then see your self take the buck. Nice to know there is people out there like that still and dont want everything for themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
