I have not had this much fun in a long time!
When the sun started coming up this morning, I've never heard deer be so vocal! There were bucks grunting and does bleating all around me like I have never heard before!
I was sitting in a pinch between two wood lots. When it got light enough to shoot, I started tooting on my VECtor horn, and immediately had two does come out to the edge of the beans to investigate. They really had their eyes and ears peeled on the second wood lot where the grunts had came from. Only one got to run back into the woods. The other dropped at the edge of the beans.
15 minutes later, a bobby came by at about 40 yards. He saw me get my gun up and started running. I thought I was a crack shot, but I found out different. I thought there was a good chance I got him, so I thought......man oh man if I could kill a buck now!
I got back on the horn again right after that, and then tried again 15 minutes later. I had a window to my back left I was looking at while I was grunting. When I turned back to look forward, there was my buck at 35 yards staring right at me!
I dropped the grunter and raised my gun, counted 4 on one side, and let it rip! He about jumped out of his skin so I knew he was hit good.
I called RRman and told him I was out of tags and low on bullets! :rof2:
We didn't recover the bobcat, but the deer were easy to find. I sure wish there was a bobby in the middle of this picture, but everything can't always go perfect.
It was really enjoyable to get a chance to get out and use one of my calls successfully for myself. :cheers:
Oh! I'M MAKIN' THE POSTER BABY!
