Great video PTC!

I have to give you props for just being prepped and ready to encroach that close to him on opening day! I practice all summer climbing and opening few days are still always kind of a circus. Last year lost the theramcell...

Thanks for all the kind words and compliments!

I don't remember exactly what time it was when he got up. If you were able to find the 2015 live from the stand thread, you would see the breakdown in it and I believe everything should be time-stamped.

When I first saw his antlers moving in the cattails that night, he was within a shooting range but the Cattails were ridiculously tall. I actually saw him very early and saw him staging around. He sort of staged away from me for I believe little more than an hour, but I could catch his rack every once in awhile and then right when the sun hit the tree line he came out.

This was a buck bedding area that I had all figured out during the summer of 2015 and then I made my move opening morning and evening to get an arrow in one of the deer I had been seeing in the crop fields.

Listen very closely and you can pick up on a lot of unique details about this public land hunt.

It's stories like that that really hammer home the importance of precise shot location and where a lot of the "perfect shot" stories probably end up. Looking at the video, you would swear that was a great shot, or minimum a tough track but dead deer, and here he lived. Crazy stuff.

Very cool summary too! Thanks.
