well i have been hunting hard since october 10th 3 days every week since then and had run into several problems, mainly not a lot of time so opted to gun hunt this year so i could scout the new areas and find some places to hang tree stands so i can archery hunt next year. i also ran into a rifle problem the remington 700 .243 i was using happens to be a pile of $%^&*.(things like bottom of clip exploding when i shot. bolt came all the way out when i tried to jack another shell.) any ways it all came togather tuesday night. i got off the beaten path on a ridge i had seen deer on a couple weeks before. i got about 600 yards out on the ridge and grunted on my grunt tube and heard something break sticks in the trees about a hundred yards away. then watched this deer come up on the ridge about 200 yards away then back down the otherside. so moved up slow about 100 yards found a stump underneath a pine tree and layed down with the stump as a gun rest. then i grunted on the tube again. the buck turned around and headed right back to the top of the ridge i was on. got to 120 yards turned broadside and i dropped him in his tracks!!!!!! not the biggest buck but i am very happy with him. here is some pics.
