Well guys patience finally paid off. Last night the eve of the full moon in was nothing but excitement from the moment I got into my Summit Viper SS Climber. Five mintues after I tried to quietly get up my TREE a young forker came underneath me. Ten minutes later a really small forker came from my right. The wind was right out of the NW in my face. Then doe after doe kept filtering into the late august planted soybean field. I knew it was close to time the bigger boys came out to play.
I have hunted this tree when the wind is right for the last two weeks. And last night the wind was wrong. I decided to go ahead and take a chance. This Big bodied 9 pointer came in 15 mintues before last shooting time. I got to tell ya when I let the first arrow fly( ya first) I was disgusted. Arrow was to high at 25 yds. I then nocked another arrow and this time it was low. I was ready to come out of my skin. I then looked at my bow and noticed the STS limbsaver was getting in the way of my bowstring. I tightened it up and finally did the smackdown on this MAMa JAMA. I was using Slicktrick broadheads, Easton Axia arrows , and easton Tracer NOC’s I gotta say it was cool watching the arrow go right through him and out the otherside.
He went thirty yards and crashed. So I pulled out of the woods last nightsince it was going to be in the low 30’s. I found him this morning around 6:45 right were I heard him crash. He aged at 4.5 years old. I gotta say what a blast to finally be up in the tree taking Whitetails again.
