Here’s the buck I shot this weekend.
On Friday night, my brother was called into work (for Saturday morning), so I took his stepson out and put him in my stand opening morning. I walked about 200yds away to the edge of a 36 acre patch we just bought and let him have the best spot on the farm. I have no stand there, so I just brushed some leaves away from the ground and plopped my butt onto a folding chair. I bumped 2 small bucks and 2 does on the way there, so I wasn’t planning on seeing much. Well as luck would have it, 5 minutes into the hunt, I heard a grunt, looked up and saw two does trotting my way. Right behind them was the Split G-2 buck. I watched him for a minute or so, then shot him at 50 yards! He weighed 192 field-dressed and grossed 145 1/8”.
Three of us passed him last year and he exploded in size. My brother found one of his sheds this spring. I have a ton of trail cam pics and 4 trail cam videos of him. I have attached a few of the better ones.
