Default My First Mulie Buck

Got my first mule buck the other day. Was a pretty cold and windy one and mixed with the excitement I made a crappy shot but was able to put another in him with much better placement.
I initially saw him earlier in the day but then he sort of jogged off across the field into a ravine, so i came back a couple hours later confident he'd come backs nd sure enough I turn the corner and he's in the ditch by a pond. I pulled over, he sauntered across the road to my side and into a field, stopped...then pretty much walked into some bush that was nearby. As I watched him walk into the trees I knew exactly where he was going to go, and exactly where I would have a great chance at him from about 150-200 yards.
So I go up a hill and set up along a tree to keep steady and sure enough not even 2 mins he came into a clearing. And the rest is history haha

That's a slab of meat, looks like a line backer, great buck.
