I hunted Saturday 11/1/2025 with my boyfriend and a nice tall 6 pointer walked out (no brow tines). My boyfriend tried to get me to shoot it but I wanted to wait and use my buck tag on two other deers I have been seeing on camera (mostly a night 😞). 11/2/2025 I got back in the stand by myself. A die came in first and was a little skittish. Then the target buck shows up, goes to his scrap, messes with the doe a sec, goes back to his scrap. Adrenaline was flowing. I just waited patiently for him to get into a good shooting lane within bow range. I shot him about 30 yards away. Then tracked him 150 yards. Target acquired!!
