Opening morning, walking to my stand at 5am and my target buck who of course I’ve never seen in daylight was right in my path to my stand. I watched him at 100 yds for a few minutes till walked off to never be seen again. I figured that was my one chance for the season.
On the 2nd day of the season I decided to go to another spot where I know there are nice Muleys. I pulled my buck draw this year and have been excited for the chance to chase Muleys.
Well, hunting is a funny sport. You never know what will happen. About 1 hour into the hunt, this guy walked out into the field. I watched him for over an hour till we were almost out of time and I had to make a decision. He was about 178 yds out in the field. So I got down from my stand and did a stalk. I had a long shot to make but I had time to setup and wait and I made a perfect double lung shot and he was down. What a night!
