More times than not, hunters know when there’s a big buck around. They show up on trail cameras, are seen while hunting, and even while driving. But that’s not always the case. Sometimes a buck catches the hunter totally by surprise, one that has never been seen before. That’s what happened to Ross Weber on October 13, 2015. Reading the full story at Legendary Whitetails.
I was hunting the evening of October 13th 2015. The conditions were windy (strong west wind), overcast, and cold. I first saw the buck around 6:15 and let the arrow fly around 6:20. As soon as I saw him I knew he was a shooter. He was taking his time eating acorns as he approached a shooting lane. I figured it to be about a 40 yard shot to where it looked like he may give me a shot. I make judging distance easier on myself by marking a few trees in each direction at 30 yards. I then can compare that to where the deer is standing, rather than having to worry about fumbling around with my range finder during a high-pressure situation… [continued]
