Finally was able to seal the deal on the “Anxiety buck”! Multiple encounters, a couple misses, and many days of cat and mouse scenarios really got to my mental capacity limits! I had a stand this buck was seen at a couple times and have chose not to hunt in mornings as a tatic in case I needed that extra edge. Stars aligned, winds were 100% in my favor, and I knew Anxiety would be using this runway as I finally figured out his bedding area. I had many eves in this stand, letting them try to pattern me and even called off work to sit this particular morning as everything just clicked. Within 45 min of that morning sit, my G5 mega meat did it’s work! A total of roughly 46 hours of just tree stand time went into this guy, along with preparation, researching cams, off season scouting, etc. One of the most challenging deer I’ve ever focused on for sure!
