Brock, Mason and friends.

So pumped for you in getting Homer the hard way and with such a clean quick kill shot. You think he was out cruising after being lockdown with a doe?

Congratulations Brock

Congratulations Brock

No, he was hot on a fresh tail. He had one pinned down a few days prior. I had a close encounter with him that evening but didn’t get a shot. Exciting though. I had slipped in on this ridge a couple weeks ago and did a hang and hunt. I got lucky and the set up was so perfect I just left it. I’ve been trying to over hunt it but due to good access I’ve been able to hunt the spot repeatedly and nothing seems to have picked up on me being there. I’ve had the same smallish doe feet from my tree numerous times. She’s not a fawn but she is not one of those hateful old girls either. She’s come up and down the same draw several times. I can’t say for sure but I think it was her that brought him by. He stopped when I gave him the meahhhh thing, which surprised me as he was hauling it after her. The entire thing was just perfect and I wish I’d had time to flip the camera on. It was just beautiful. Homer had a tendency to bed on a knob 100 yards or so NE of where I hung that set. With him coming home after a year and a half I really hoped he would return to those old habits. I think he did since I’ve had encounters with him three times in the last week and a half or so.

Brock how do you remain so humble with all of your and masons success over the years...that alone is impressive to me.

I’m not terribly humble. I do however know Mason and I have gotten lucky more times than we deserve. He is out trying to get lucky right now on a five year old 10. He saw him two nights ago but it wasn’t in range of his recurve. He has his compound tonight- he’s prepared to send it. lol. We set his pal up on this buck the first year we owned that piece but somehow he walked right by them without the boys seeing him. That was during gun season too. I got a cell pic sent and thought for sure they killed him. There is no cell service at that farm so I drove out You can imagine his surprise when I showed him the pic w the blind in the background. lol. Hope he pays more attention today!

I told Mason to get rid of that compound if he wants to kill one with a recurve. it will always be a crutch guys fall back on.

Congratulations, Brock!

And he probably told you to mind your business. lol. He was set up in a field tonight that the buck was in last night. The extended range there is why he took the compound. And I don’t blame him one bit. As you know on that farm we have a problem neighbor. One of them is going to kill that deer this season. I’d rather it be Mason and I don’t care what he uses to get him.
