2021 Indiana Buck
« on: October 31, 2021, 07:30:09 PM »
 Great morning in the deer woods! I had a rub line going through a white oak bottom I wanted to hunt. I could go through the bottom or go over the top and stay above it and that’s what I decided to do. About 100yds from my spot I bumped a nice buck who smelled exactly like that dominant buck urine you can buy!  He was strong. I bumped a smaller buck right before my setup and he smelled the same too. Thought man I won’t see anything. About 830 I see a big deer working his way down an old logging road. I see he’s got a beautiful right side with at least 5 nice tines. I have to watch him go by at about 5-6yds so he could be slightly quartering away. When he cleared and came into a small opening I mouth grunted. He slammed on the brakes and I let loose of my Black Widow PLX at about 10-12yds. He never even heard it. Barebow Tradonly shaft went beautifully in the pocket behind the shoulder. Breaking the off side shoulder. He chugged about 80yds and all was quiet at 833. I just took my biggest buck!  I was pleasantly surprised by the Zwickey No Mercy single bevel. Busted the off leg and left an amazing blood trail. Sliced through the heart! What a blessed morning! Fun fact I got the Zwickey’s several(maybe more?) years ago off the St. Jude’s auction. Took my about 30 minutes to get that sucker sharp, but man it did the thing!

Great looking 10, well done.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.
