Imagine you have been scouting all summer long and have found the buck you plan to be taking. For several months straight, without missing a weekend, you have seen him. He is a nice 27" heavy 4x4 with great symmetry. You have been scouting this buck and have patterned his behavior to a "T". Its the night before the opener and you are getting giddy knowing right where he will be and all of your scouting and homework is about to pay off. You are thinking, "this is how a hunter should hunt!"
Opening morning arrives and you are are on your way to the bucks familiar ground. As you are in your truck making your way to the area your buck is, the sun is just coming out and its light enough for legal shooting. Right as you are about to park and get your hike started, you see a really nice, equally heavy 4x4 that is easily over 30". To take him, all you have to do is get out of the truck, walk off the road and take a simple 75 yard shot.
