We had a nice 6 point come in after the first hour or so of sitting he ended up winding us because it was so hot and we were sweating the wind was not blowing in our favor after he left I said don’t worry he might be back as time past I could tell he was getting discouraged. It was about 7:00 and we looked down and there was a buck right at 15 yds. And this time it was a lot bigger, so I helped him get all ready to shoot and he had to wait 10-15 minutes for him to clear some brush finally he was able to take the shot and it was a perfect double lung shot he didn’t make it but 80yds. At best. Very awesome first deer!
