Default Probably the most exciting 45 minutes of deer hunting I’ve experienced.

He’s hanging and I’m well on my way into a celebratory drunk. Story and more pics to follow tomorrow, aside from a tiny spoiler. Deep bush buck. We had history. Rattled in and shot at - 8 yards.

Way to go Boom Chop! At 8 yards you probably just shot him from the hip

Enjoy your celebration.

Bush Bucks are the best. Especially when rattled in, congratulations.
