Hey guys
Sorry been busy. Quick story. I spent eight days hiking and countless hours behind the glasses trying to find that "special" buck. On the eighth day I hiked into a bowl that had two giants in it. The first of the two gave me the slip in the deep brush. The second one I stalked in on and got set up, and right when I was going to squeeze the trigger, another hunter I couldn't see shot the buck I was on. Crying shame too. The buck was never retrieved. I went back to try and find the original and I ended up jumping the one I shot. I was a little twisted up from seeing the other two big ones and dumped this one offhand when he bolted. I was pretty disappointed when I got up to it because I thought it was a different buck. But all in all its not a bad deer. Had a great hunt and made the most of my tag. Plus it made pretty dang good backstrap sandwiches. I can't remember how to post pics on here or I would do it. Any help?
