I got in the stand about 3:00 Tuesday the 11th and I was sitting in the stand and the wind was blowing hard all evening in the east direction and I was hoping it would stop. So I sat and about 5:02 a deer I hunted for 4 years came strutting out of the field. I had my 30-06 and I put it on his right shoulder and the gun clicked. So i injected another shell and throw the gun back on his right shoulder and hit him dead center of his heart. I was so happy a deer I followed for 4 years finally came to an end. It was a long journey but I’m glad we finally putting him on the wall.
