Come on guy’s some of us have to work ya know
Ok OK the story
Well I was hunting a field edge that has woods all around it and as the sun came up I had not seen any deer but I did see 2 guys that look as they wanted to sneak in the woods that I can hunt
, so after I let them know I was in the tree stand about 300 yards from them they took off to a woods on the other side of my spot ! So now I’m thinking well this just sucks But they did kick 4 does my way . About 15 min later I seen the truck leave and looked back into the open field to see this guy and a doe coming my way 
Well they cut in the woods about 200 yards short of my tree ! Waited and waited nothing , Sat down and was about sick ! 15 min went by then I could here something walking down low from my stand but could not see it , Thinking NO they are going to low for a shot witch they did but bedded down 150 yards down the valley from me just so I could watch them for 2 hours 
( You think I am a tad shook at this time) He would give me looks at his head every 10 min , First he was a big 8 then he was a 10 then no a 8 ! Well right at the 2 hr mark the doe stood up ! OH BOY … It’s going to happen 
Up came the buck took one look at doe and the chase was on right up the hill 
Then I was like oh my god he is a pig , with in no time at all they came right by my stand at 15 yards (I think I had the gun on him for about 100 yards) Put the 
on him and he went right down , kicked once or twice and it was over 
Thank god for a tree belt or I think I would have fell out of the tree !
I just sat in that tree with my gun on him and thinking is he going to get back up ? Then it all set in my god I just shot a monster ! When I got my legs back I got down and went to him , picked up his head , and started calling people for help ! Unreal hunt and will never forget how my year started out SOOOOO horse crap with guy’s moving in on me and not seeing deer and this and that ! Whitetails and Lip you guy’s have listen to me all year complain ! But this just goes to show you hang on it CAN ALL CHANGE SO FAST ! GOOD LUCK TO ALL AND GOOD HUNTING JASONNovember 29, 2006 at 5:40 pm #504746Come on guy’s some of us have to work ya know

November 29, 2006 at 6:07 pm #26187Well we did put him on the scale (live) pounds said 235 and guts out said 195 ? (I would say the scale was wrong)
I have shot some good ones (205,210 )and this sucker was way bigger it took 3 of us to put him in the truck and 5 to hang ! I guess I will never really know except that he was VERY BIG !November 29, 2006 at 6:07 pm #504756Well we did put him on the scale (live) pounds said 235 and guts out said 195 ?

Does anyone else know that you shot this at Oxbow Zoo.
Those other guys you kicked out were the park rangers. November 29, 2006 at 6:53 pm #504777Quote:

Way to hang in there for 2 hours. I would have had a hard time not trying to get a closer peak/shot at it. Did you get him around the Byron area? Don’t need GPS coordinates or anything, but my dad has some land down around Rock Dell and which I have always had my eye on, but my uncle has a party that has laid claim to that land so I have stuck closer to home.November 29, 2006 at 7:09 pm #504785Congratulations and thanks for the awesome story.

My dads place is about 5 miles North of Rock Dell and yes that is a very good area , Your dad owns it and YOU can’t hunt it ? UMMMM I would get that changed !November 29, 2006 at 7:17 pm #504789Got him in the woods

Not to say I “can’t” hunt it. It was my grandparents land and is split between my dad and 2 uncles. 1 Uncle still farms it and he hunts it. I have never tried to hook up with his party but have always known it is a great area. They are successful every year. I have plenty of area to hunt back over here by Dodge Center and my hunting buddies hunt zone 4 for shotgun season. Plus it is nice being able to walk out my garage to my stand about 1/4 mile away. This is my first year hunting with the smoke pole. Since the corn has been gone here though, the deer have headed to thicker cover. Just thinking that in the future I might need to get deeper into some woods.
Again congratulations!!! That is an awesome deer!!November 29, 2006 at 7:38 pm #504804Quote:
