Thanks for the opportunity to hunt with you again this year. During the 03-04 season my Dad and I hunted with for 3 days in 10-15 degrees of weather. It was frigid but a good hunt. We both saw good bucks and several deer but never fired a shot. We could see the potential of the area and decided then to return the following year. We returned in 04-05 for a 5-day hunt and just had a great hunt. On the 3rd day of the hunt my Dad harvested a 150 3/8" inch 9 point with a 6 1/8" base. He made a great shot at 275 yards out of a tower stand. He was thrilled to get a buck of that caliber but I think I was more excited than he was!
The morning Dad killed his buck I saw a 150-160 class deer chasing a doe at about 800 yards across a bean field on the horizon. That was an awesome sight.
After hunting hard for the remainder of the hunt and having seen approximately 12 bucks that were 7 or 8 points with 16 inch spreads, it came down to the last day. I decided to take Dad with me to a larger blind for good luck and at 4:00 in the afternoon a 142 inch buck walked out. He didn't go 10 feet after the shot.
Thanks for a great hunt! I look forward to hunting with you again next year. You, Clay, Trenton, and Steve do a great job taking care of your hunters.
