Sitting in the old deer stand,the one nicknamed the big Oak.It's a honey hole during the rut.It was about 8:30 in the morning and the air was cool and the sky was clear.I had seen several deer,so I decided to stay in longer.The action really started to pick up at a quater after 9.The bucks were really movein.I was watching a 4 pt. for a while when he started to move my way.As he got closer,I saw that he didn't have any browtines and the rack was pretty tall for a deer with only 4 pts.But I decided to let him go on by.Now in the big oak,the branch I was on comes straight out from the tree and is only about 10 ft.from the ground.The buck starts to come right for me so I'm getting that rush,you know what I mean.He comes directly under me and as I'm looking down at him I'm thinking, This guy doesn't have a clue that my feet are only 6 or 7 feet from his head.As I watched walk away I thought,Man this why I love deer hunting.This Is why I got up so early.I got my deer the next morning out of that old stand,and I'll never forget that But the coolest thing this year was that 4 pionter that came under me the morning before.And the feelings I felt haveing the experiance.It's great to be alive and be in the timber.
