I had seen this buck 3 of the prior 4 nights. On the 5th night it rained. I debated even going out. Decided it was worth it. 2 hours later I was regretting every second of it… cold, wet. Around 5pm he showed up, chasing a couple does. Walked 25 yards in front of me, for a perfect broadside shot!
First buck of my life at 33 years old!
