In search of my biggest Whitetail, 2010 MEXICO SEASON

[Gerardo]

Season started this past 27 of november, and the rut kicked in last week. I am amazed of what a beauty of an animal whitetails are and how they graze silently thru our woods. They are so unique each with different racks, faces, scars.

I am using this thread as therapy, I could call it Psychotherapy.

Usually I am not to picky on trophy bucks, I learned the hard way thru several seasons of tag soup, but this year I have controlled myself to use the one and only tag I have for a great buck, not a monster buck, a great old, well lived , well traveled fullfield buck.

A buck that deserves my respect and will be given an honor place on the wall.

[Gerardo]

Last year I used my tag early in the season , and I dedicated myself to hunting javalina thru spot and stalk.

On one of this hunts I entered the woods, and I jumped a doe. I quickly came on my knees as I usually do when I jump an animal and just stayed there and didn´t move at all. After 20 seconds of just staying there I felt thumps on the floor and some movement toward me. It was a buck that was trailing the doe, It was an old 12 pointer, that encounter lives with me and we had eye contact for more than a minute at 15 yds. I had no tags left and I could only enjoy the time and moment with him.

I always enjoy your posts, Gerardo... keep it up!

A friend of mine placed a trail camera close to where I had this encounter and this year he came up. I am pretty sure it is him

If not, he is a great old one, not too much points and measurement and etc etc. But he is a buck I want and fills my criteria of old, well lived and big buck

 

[Gerardo]

What am i saying not too much points , I am wetting my pants now, I hope hope hope , we meet again

[Gerardo]

I will do my best, get there early , not make too much noise, and be patience , virtue I have to yet master and develop

[Gerardo]

hope he is not leaving for good
