So, we had a perfect wind for my ladderstand below the new shooting house. I sent DW there, telling him "In the afternoon, they move from the woods to the field. I've never seen them moving from field to woods in the afternoon there.." So, he gets in the stand. I set up on the ground in the creek bottom to his right, just over the break of the field, about 350 yards away. If deer came through, one of us would see... I saw the stupid spike within 5 minutes of sitting down. About 4:00, I grunted. 2 minutes later, I see a buck moving down the creek, on the other side of the creek. Looked interesting, so I grunted hard to stop him, then grunted again. He darted down the creek bank on my side, stopped perfectly in an opening 90 yards out, but I couldn't see his headgear. He moved into the thicker crap in the bottom. Never could get a good look at his hardware. DW shoots, and this buck, and two does I didn't even know were there bolted, towards DW. We text back and forth, and he couldn't confirm the buck was down, but he thought it was. I didn't want to mess with tracking in the dark, so I came out 30 minutes early. When I stepped out of the crap, I saw a buck making a scrape about 50 yards down the tree line. Glassed him, and could tell he was decent. Jacked my scope up to 14, and he was debatable. That buck walked right under DW, and he texted me, "I'm pissed". LOL. That buck chased a little doe all around him for 10 minutes. He told me I should have shot. I don't think I knew the buck, but he's around, so maybe we will get him. Regardless, DW scored on a nice buck. It's the 7 point I videoed pushing around the 8 point in early bow season. Big body, mature, just the same old shit genes we have. DW has two bucks in three years, so it's all good.....

Congrats everyone, lots of rutting going on. A little windy, but cooler weather made for one of the better openers I've seen in quite awhile.

Let him lay 2 hours after dark to give him plenty of time. Coyotes paid me back from taking out one of their numbers this morning by getting to my buck before I got back. Not sure if 12 or 13 scoreble points yet. Took me hours to get him out by myself. Finally able to post. Congrats to everyone else who also put meat in the freezer. God is good.

Great buck James Scott, congratulations and thanks for sharing! I let one lay for afew hours on a bow kill, went to get him and the coyotes had gutted it and started on one of the hams. I hate those things! I appreciate you killing the coyote earlier.

He rolled out with no hesitation this morning.
something tells me he will be in high alert between 8 and 830 this morning. Hope that big boy strolls through again!
