Trust me, I wanted to shoot. Here in my zone, you have to first shoot a doe before a buck. On 10.1 everything is fair game. However, since I missed two does on opening day, I would be illegal to shoot this buck. I was trying to avoid this type of encounter by hunting small areas where bucks normally don’t frequent. Nonetheless, it’s bitter sweet but I learned a lot during the 7 min encounter and I’m confident I’ll get a crack at him in the future. #thehuntingchallenge #godoepicstuffseekwilderness #saddlehunting #saddlehunting #saddlehunter #bowhunting
