Default Video

Just thought I would share this video I took Saturday evening. Pretty nice buck, but we have bigger in the area so I let him walk. He came out about 70 yards away and then came straight to my grunt call. Got within about 15 yards. Hope you enjoy

Default Great video

Great video, It's nice to not have to kill a buck to show him off.

It's situations like this is exactly why I always bring a video camera with me now, if you're not going to harvest the animal, you can still take it home with you.

In some situations I am more proud of getting an animal on video than killing it, it really feels good to get the reactions from Friends that don't practice QDM and don't put in the effort to get results like these, and have the confidence to let a buck like that walk. Great job on the video!!! Hope you get the one you're after.

It looks like he may be blind in the left eye. He sure was doing a lot of browsing.

You said it perfect. I completly agree. I'm getting to the point where I never go into the woods without my camera.

I love bringing home a good video of any deer but this one was really great!

That's a nice deer, most people wouldn't pass that guy up.

IMO, that's the hardest part of killing a trophy deer, passing up the borderliners.

I hope it pays off for you.
