5 year old buck +
The first hunt at Brute 'N Bottoms did not disappoint. My brother and I headed for one of the box blinds we built this summer, and I told him it was going to be a good hunt because all the beans other than ours in the neighborhood had begun to turn yellow. We were on a 4 acre bean field, and the deer have been hitting it really hard. We had does and little bucks around most of the night, and with about 15 minutes of shooting light left one of our better bucks on this farm stepped into the field. He was with a few does and they worked their way towards us eating bean leaves like he knew they would be turning yellow any day. He got 20 yards from the blind and he got an arrow sent his way. We backed out and let him be due to the hit being a little low. I called up a local guy out of Eau Claire with a dog and it was the correct call. After 100 yards blood quit, and we let the dog go to work. Without the dog we had no chance of finding this buck because he was in some nasty stuff and blood was minimal.
Here's a few stills I grabbed from the footage.
Look at how tall the beans are in relation to his back.
