Afternoon

Over the past 4 years me and my husband have been making Deer hunting a competition on who can get the “biggest” buck. Last year, I shot the widest 8 point on the property ever killed and he weighed 200 pounds. I’ve been rubbing it in over the last year about that deer to my husband and now this year, I get to rub in a nice 9 point. This Deer was the biggest Deer on our property this year. He came 50 yards away from my stand and where my stand was, was out in a pasture, where we parked our trucks. My husband was a little ways in the woods at another stand. The 9 point came in between me and my husband and well, I got the buck! I am blessed to have the 2 biggest Deer off our property and I’ll hold that title until my husband gets one bigger one year. I would like to thank my sponsor. My husband, for doing all the hard work at keeping my stands clean and foodplots prepped, cameras charged and most importantly getting my Deer mounted. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.
