Mark’s 2018 archery kill. Mark shot this buck 10/20 in the interior plot “The Boot”. This buck is 6 1/2 years old. Congrats Mark on a great buck.

Last night, 10/20, as the wind blew from the NW with gusts approaching 40 MPH, Mark took to the timber in an interior plot I call “The Boot”.  Year in and year out this is a great spot, but this year it had multiple mature deer traveling through it staging up before they headed out to the east to a larger alfalfa field.  Mark had the perfect wind after being patient this fall, and as the wind started to drop this mature buck came in.  After a perfect shot I got the call from Mark that he had a great buck arrowed…the track job was easy with the perfect shot and the buck didn’t go but about 70 yards.  Congrats Mark on a great buck and a great hunt you put together!
