3rd Weekend Report

bountyhunter · 10-18-2010, 06:56 AM

Well it wasn't much better than the first week. I did butt shoot a tree rat and he was POed, but I bet he won't be coming to eat corn for a while. Got pictures of a good buck showing up at the one stand in the wee hours of the morning. Then this buck and I met in the trail as I was going over to check the camera. That split second of indecision on his spread cost me. If I'd just drawn and shot it might have been a different story, but he bolted before I got to full draw. Here is the video that includes the butt shot and game came pictures of the big buck.

Hang in there, Derek. That's why they call it huntin' and not killin'.

(I bet you get him during the rut.)

I think the rut is right around the corner. His nick is so swelled up it is ready to bust. It's killing me I can't get back up there next weekend.

Good buck, you will get him. At least your are getting to hunt. Give you more reason to keep going back. Bob
