It was a very slow weekend and I almost didn’t even get up Sunday morning to go hunting because of the super slow activity. I had a gut feeling that I needed to do it and I headed out to our main food plot. I sat till about 9:00 am until I was getting so tired that I considered walking back. I stood up and grabbed some snacks in my bag and my uncle who was with me was working on our heater because of it being only 25 degrees. My uncle looked up as I was grabbing some HoHos and said “Dude, Big Buck!”. I threw everything down and busted open the window. I threw the gun up and dropped him in his tracks at 100 yards. I couldn’t be more proud and excited after passing all the little deer to get to this point and drop my first buck!
