[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 3914483, member: 14646"] Finally got on the board at the 11th hour yesterday. Not to sound all mushy but this deer really makes me happy. Not the biggest or heaviest I've killed but will hold a lot of sentimental value for me. Since I started hunting OK in the late '90s with my father in law on his lease I've always wanted to own land and have the ability to hunt on it. As most of you know I finally moved to OK last year (after being on this forum for the prior 11 years) and my wife and I bought our property last February. Was blessed enough to have the funds and "know how" to carve out one food plot out of a pasture and one 3/4 acre plot out of some thick nasty brush woods. The Buck Forage Oats and winter wheat along with three corn feeders really attracted the deer. Lots of sweat, diesel and hard work paid off at about 5:15pm on Sunday evening. Had 5 does and couple fawns on the plot for about an hour feeding. THey were a bit skiddish but hung around. They were definately on alert probably due to the swirling winds and them catching my scent occasionally. Finally all the girls looked up and stared in the same direction they came from and where most of the deer walk in from. THey stared for more than several minutes. Finally this guy showed up and wondered toward them. He was the first shooter deer I got on camera back in early September when I put my first cameras and feeders up before i even planted the Oat and Wheat. Saw him regularly on camera but 95% of the time deep into the night. Needless to say he's not the giant we see posted on the internets but he's absolutely the one I'm most proud of and will always remember what it took to take this buck. BTW, I was wearing my blaze orange vest but had just took it off from around my backpack and chest when my wife arrived and wanted pics. [ATTACH type="full"]326250[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
