Because of a Minnesota movie that was starting for me in early November, my time in the woods this season was precious. I would only have 5 days of gun season, so I spent many October days in the woods with the bow, hoping to get my buck before the big job started. I actually saw this fellow from 25 yards the day before gun season opened, but he kept a lot of brush between himself and my archery set up. I relocated to a nearby spot on Saturday morning and he came rolling down one of the trails, on the prowl, looking for a doe. I grunted twice, getting him to stop; that's when I ott-sixed him. He's my best buck to date and was happy to share the success with all the good folks and pup back at deer camp.
