Well I took off early on Friday and made it to the ranch with just enough time to change and get into the stand. This is a new ranch and we decided to just shoot cull bucks this year. I was going after a deer we named Floppy, a 6.5 year old deer with very recognizable ears. He was coming to one stand in particular and luckily for me the wind was perfect. I got in the stand and before I could even get set up I had two does come in, I knew it was going to be a good hunt. Soon after the feeder went off the does left and I caught movement. As soon as I saw him I knew it was Floppy, he came right on in to the feeder. It seemed too good to be true, there he was steps away from my shooting lane and what do you know, he turns around and starts feeding on the back side of the feeder. I wondered if it was going to happen and then he turned back and started to come in. Before I knew it he was back , I took my time, came to full draw and let it fly. The hit was a little low but I could instantly saw blood and knew he would not make it far. I got down check the arrow and started to follow the blood. 50 yards into he track and there he was, he is my biggest buck to date.
