Had some good luck this morning. Got tired of hunting in a box blind so I told my dad to just drop me off, and I'd walk through the woods where I had never hinted and see if I could sneak up on one. This is the second time I've killed a buck sitting in a lawn chair. This was my deer stand.

Nice. A couple more details. Where did you put the chair?
Watching a trail, tree line, water?
Hear him, shot distance.
I have been wanting to try this

I have been wanting to try this I got on a deep, dry creek (6 ft on each side). There were trails on both sides of the creek and it was a point where they could cross easily. He came not through any of the trails but some THICK brush. He basically just appeared in my peripheral vision. Shot him at 40 yards right as he stepped into an opening in the brush.

I had never sat at this spot before, so I had no idea what to expect, just knew the wind was right. I also found it in the dark. As the sun came up, I saw an old deer stand in the tree next to me. Figured I must be in a good spot. The old stand.

My feeder stopped working, so next hunt I'm doing the same thing.

The funny thing is a guy at our lease had him on camera a mile away at 3:49am that morning. I shot him at 8 :50am.

ARE YOU CRAZY BRINGING THAT RED CHAIR INTO THE WOODS? YOU MUST BE CAMO'D RIGHT DOWN TO YOUR EYEBALLS TO KILL DEER.
You're just lucky you weren't gored by an angry Spanish bull carrying that thing out there.
Great deer though.

Great buck. Even cooler, is how you got him. If a pattern doesn't work, then do something different. You did and it certainly paid off. Congratulations, Jacob.

Nice buck, I am 'Nac' county myself.
