Here's the video of my buck from this years opening day. I had a slow morning with off and on rain only seeing three small deer. I made it to the blind at 4 in a light but steady rain for the evening hunt. I wasn't too hopeful unless the rain stopped with enough time for movement before dark.
Luck was on my side, the rain stopped about 5:30 and these deer starting piling in at 6:15. It only took a few minutes to close the deal and as he ran off, I saw him get wobbly legged just as he rounded some trees out of view. I found him at that spot, 70 yards from the shot.
When I sat down to put this together, I had no idea where to go with it and then while looking through some pictures it sort of came together.
Here's a link to the story following the kill.
The video is a bit harsh, the evening sun was glaring through the breaking clouds.
