longbow buck from NY 11/4/06

well i hunted hard all week, Saw 6 different bucks, they are really cruising looking for does. Also they are really responding to rattleing, I had 3 different bucks charge in to the rattle back. Sat. night I heard what i thought was a buck rubing his antlers, so I gave a few tending grunts and he came right in....to 4YARDS!!!!... i shot him at 5 yards through both shoulders, he locked right up and dropped, i put one more in his heart and that was that.over all a great weekend.

RE: longbow buck from NY 11/4/06

Thanks for teh help....honestly I am very happy and proud of this buck.....but if I had the chance to let that buck go another year, imagine what he would be.he was 2.5 years. This property is very heavily hunted........still a trophy in my book though.a hunt I will never forget.
