2005 Deer Hunt

With such good luck in 04, I had to go back to Arkansas looking for another trophy buck. On the day after thanksgiving I got to the blind just before dawn. Just after sunup clouds rolled in and left us in a dreary overcast sky. I switched to my yellow tinted Bulls Eye Optix to increase brightness. Just after 7:00 am I saw this big boy. He stepped out of thick timber into a power line clearing following a doe. I knew that time was of the essence because the clearing was only 20 yards wide. Although the sky was overcast and the deer was 200+ yards away my vision was clear enough to accurately place a kill shot. He weighed in at 200 pounds with a 17 ½ center spread and G2s that were 14 inches. I sure hope they let me come back to Arkansas next year.
