Last chance buck 12/6/22

I have been bow hunting this buck for the past two seasons. I never once saw him until mid October this year, but he busted me when I drew back my bow.

My last conference call for the day was 330-400. I snuck into the blind (while still on the phone). It ended early, around 350. A few minutes later I heard deer running. There stood a doe very close at 50 yards, and past her was the buck in the food plot. I had a rifle with me, due to rain/bad wind, and it was only a bonus hunt after work. I quickly set down my coffee mug, which banged loudly (!%&*) on the metal floor. The doe looked up at me, the buck was still there, focused on the doe, waiting for her next move. I carefully pushed my rifle out the window, the scope was completely fogged! Frantically I wiped both ends, as he slowly started walking back into the woods. I tried again, and found him right before he stepped out of sight.

I just wonder how many people would've deemed him as a "scrub buck" last year? Looks like he put on a good bit from then til now.

Thats a great buck. It's always cool to kill one that you have history with.

Very nice deer!

Is that the stand you sat way back in the first pic?

Thanks. Yeah, that's the one I shot him out of in the background.. Approx 120 yards. He came out right under my bow stand. He won't score much at all. Im interested to see what they age his jaw bone at.
