Had a successful trip this year to west central Ill. The weather was not very good. We did see a bunch of good bucks the few good mornings we had. I missed a real big 9 point the first morning. He was out of range and I called him in. Had to rush the shot (he was circling downwind) and he was farther than I thought. All the deer were cutting the corner off of a field and staying too far. There was about a 25' tall oak tree out in field. So, I hung a lock on in it and killed this one at 13 yards.






Here is the setup:




Here is some of my footage from the trip, including the 9 point I missed (2nd buck). Footage is not very good, but I don't have a cameraman.

Wow great video! Looks like you had some awesome encounters with some good bucks. Lotta character on the one you killed. Congrats!

Love that deer you killed, lots of character. Private land?

I'm impressed that you killed him out of that tree......got to go with what you have.....nice deer.

Well done!
Is that first song The Black Keys?

Awesome!

It is the black keys - "hold me in your arms"
