Had the privilege of being invited to hunt a deer preserve property in Otsego County. It’s a 525 acre property with beauty you only see in movies. A couple of other bucks were in the area chasing does but I focused on this cool rack. Maybe it’s not quite the same as hunting in the wild but it felt the same. Buck fever set it! My .270 Weatherby Mag took him down swiftly. I had 1 week to hunt and now we have some fabulous meat headed for the freezer. I typically hunt in Charlevoix with my bow but family issues changed my schedule. It’s an opportunity I most likely won’t have again. Deer and deer behavior is amazing to watch. Be safe!
