Patience Pays

Several years ago this hunter was recognized for holding out until the last day of the season and pulling a rabbit out of his hat with a 160 inch buck. This year was similar, but he switched locations mid way through the season to a farm that typically gets a lot of attention during the firearms season. The landowner tipped him to also check out an 80 acre farm across the street because there was a lot of pressure early from surrounding hunters and the tall crp grass was ideal cover for a big buck to hide out. David put up 2 tri-pod stands and saw what he was after the second evening, but it dropped into a ditch and slipped away in the tall grass. At dusk, on day nine this impressive buck presented itself with a 50 yard shot to make this hunters season a success.
