Well, I should had a great hunt this year. My dad and uncle Dennis came out for a week long hunt and we had a great time. The wind on Friday before the 2nd season opener worried me a bit, but it cleared up nicely on Saturday morning.
I passed on three bucks on Saturday. I told myself that he would have to be good to go down on opening day. Sunday rolled around and I saw a small 3x3. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't have taken him. I had just dropped my drawers for my morning ritual. I'm sure you've all been there too.....
I got up to where my dad was supposed to have the truck and realized that he didn't put it where I thought he was going to so I checked out another ridge. By now it's around 10:00. I dropped down onto some boulders and kicked out a couple of doe. They weren't too spooked but went down and up the other side. I heard a crash from behind them and my buck walked out. He gave me a great neck shot, so I dropped him at 150 yards in his tracks.....never knew what hit him.
After taking him home and butchering him, I got to come back and hunt some more with dad and watch him make a great 300 yard shot on a buck. My uncle Dennis made another great shot on his buck and we went home three for three!
