A buck named "click"

Tbuck · Sep 5, 2006

My son took this buck this past weekend on an early season rifle hunt in Utah. We named him "click" because after it was decided we would take him, my son did not chamber a round in his gun and after taking careful aim he squeezed the trigger, you guest it, click. The buck bolted and we didn't think we would see him again. A few days later he got the chance to redeem his self as we relocated the buck and a nice 85 yard shot secured the bucks fate and put a big smile on my sons face. The buck is 27 1/2 inches wide and heavy.

Great looking second chance buck. You must have hunted hard and had patience to be able to see him again.

Was this early season rifle hunt one of the youth hunts? Just curious.
