Controlled hunt - Big Buck and Bigger Buck
Last week on Wednsday morning after a bad wind all night , I figured if the wind dropped the deer would move and did they ever.
Walked in to the stand and in the dark one is blowing at me , I grunted at the sound and off it went. Daylight came and I sat and looked around and hear a snap and a few seconds a buck walks out trying to wind the scent and when he walked into a shooting lane at 70 yards the 20 gauge wingmaster went off with a Remington acutip on its way. The buck went 30 yards and dropped at 8:30am.
I get down to walk over and take pictures, happy to have made my first kill with the gun and as I get ready to gut I hear a sound to my right and here's anothe buck coming up in front of me 50 yards away and heading to the field.
I grab the gun that has no shells in it and load it with 2 shells and try to get to the field to get a shot and when I get to the field I don't see this buck as I look around and as I turn a doe is running right at me from down the field 50 yards away :o
As she runs by at 20 yards away, I notice Horns to my left coming over a ridge in the field and right at me. At 20 yards I take a shot when he's running the doe and he turns and heads to the woods.
9:00am I have the second buck down with the wingmaster 20 gauge and Rem. Acutips. This was not the same buck that passed me in the woods as it was a much smaller one.
Brampton Mike and I took the rest of the morning pulling deer.
I hung up the gun as we only have 5 hunting and decide with a group OK that Friday I would try to add tothe meat pole but we only have one doe tag and I will not use it, and let someone else in the group do that. Friday just before it got dusk I walked way back in as the deer have slowed moving in daylight and sat in a very thick area and within 1 hour a small fork walked out and moved towards me. Yep got him too to add to the pole Meat buck down
This trail cam was taken a mile away from where the Buck was killed.

Re: Controlled hunt - Big Buck and Bigger Buck
Sounds like a great hunt!! Congrats. I have a set of antlers that are similar to the ones in the camera picture. They were my Dad's, he shot it many years ago. They beams almost touch in front.
