Abigail went out behind our home and hunted opening day afternoon. She waited patiently for 2.5 hours on a buck of her liking. She passed a smaller 8 and 2 spike bucks. Along with 5-6 doe. The 9 point finally came out. But the other small 8 point ran blocker for him for 20+ minutes. The 9 point stayed behind the 8 point and we weren’t sure she would get a shot. The two smaller bucks begin sparring and running around. The bigger buck wheeled around like he was leaving. Luckily he stopped and turned back around. Finally she got the shot. He made it 59 steps to where he was found.
