Oooh, the last day. The last day is often the best day. I've taken several deer on the last day of the late season, including my biggest.

 

[VANDAL]

Hey guys...THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT, IT HELPS! I sure hope I can deliver.

I had a great and crazy day. It probably snowed 10 inches and still snowing. It would clear for minutes throughout the day but most of the time it was a white out. I did see some great bucks and Robby was dead on, somehow they come out of the woodwork. That 28"er could be bigger than I thought (maybe 30 and 180). I saw him towards the end of the night and he grew on me. Also saw a great buck with inlines, a little drop tine and about a 6 inch flyer on the left side that I think will go 200. If you look close you can see the cheater in the video.

Today we got a snow storm that I may never see again on a 3rd season hunt...this is my best chance at breaking 200 and I need to capitalize on it. I've never killed on the last day. I hope that changes.

As usual the video sucks, sorry. Most of the good footage was when they were in the open (of course when it was snowing) and my lens was wet so I had no clearity. 1st buck in the video is the 28"er and the last vid is of the 200"er.

I think that first buck is a last day shooter for sure. I would have shot him today. The second buck is hard to see in the video, but looks better than the other one. Good luck, man. I can't wait for tomorrow.

I hope you punch yer tag on that big one tomorrow... Good luck!

That is as good as it gets for a last day ! Clear , light fresh snow , and cold. Best of luck.

 

[Arrowslinger]

You've got me hooked, this was the first thing, besides getting a cup of coffee that i had to do this morning -check to see if you whacked that buck yet. Best of luck!

 

[Juan_ID]

Hard for an impatient guy like me!

Hope his knife is sharp...

Do you know something we don't?

 

[robby denning]

NO! I just know it's days like these that big deer are vulnerable.

C'mon Vandal, throw us a bone!

 

[ScottR_EHJ]

Your comment earlier threw me for a loop Robby, I thought you knew something.

Hope you put one of the down Vandal!

 

[Rizzy]

[VANDAL]

Bust!

Sorry for the let down. Layed a fat one on this hunt didn't I.

Going to head home now. Ill update tomorrow after I lick my wounds on the long drive home.

 

[ScottR_EHJ]

I know how you feel. Hang in there!

 

[robby denning]

Good job Vandal
you hunted 9 days without giving up.

It's never really a bust if you just remember all you've learned.
