I got this deer the second evening of rifle season. I saw a buck bigger than this one the week before. I was in the same stand and the buck was broad side at twenty yards but he was in too much brush to take a bow shot. My friend was in from Colorado to hunt the last week of bow and the first week of gun. I told him about the buck and he said he hunted the area pretty hard the last week of bow while I was working. Gun season starts and he goes to the same stand and shoots a doe early the first afternoon. The stand I am talking about is primarily an evening stand, twenty yards into the woods, over looking a cut corn field. Sunday rolls around and we are getting ready to go out for the afternoon. My friend says he is tired of hunting that part of the farm and he is going to a different stand, so I went to hunt where I had seen the big one a week earlier. You know the rest of the story. About 4:30 this deer came hauling across the field and into the woods. I whistled a couple of times and he finally slowed down enough to where I felt comfortable shooting. Keith Allen
