Justin’s Hunting Season: The Rest of the Story
Jeff, in his typical short-order fashion, posted a picture of the buck Justin took last Saturday night, but didn’t really tell the whole story of Justin’s season. If any of you faithful readers have been paying attention, that was actually Justin’s second buck of the season, and this particular kill increased his taxidermy bill immensely.
Just a few short weeks ago, Justin killed this buck with his bow. Anyone would be proud to hang that buck on the wall, but Justin just wasn’t satisfied apparently. And thankfully he listened to my sister, his girlfriend, and sat the property on Saturday night that he did – and not the property on the other side of the road.
I do hate Justin just as much as Jeff does, though. Most hunters – in their lifetime – would be plum happy shooting a buck like Justin’s first one of the season, let alone shooting two bucks of this caliber IN THE SAME YEAR! Too be honest, I would be happy with shooting either buck in my hunting lifetime. I just don’t see it in the cards, though.
Thankfully, Justin is done for the season. He can shoot a few more does if he wanted to, but to be completely honest, if I had a two bucks of that caliber on the ground already, plus a doe in the freezer as well, you can bet your you know what that I would be sleeping in for awhile.
Maybe one day I’ll get my shot. But until then I’ll just have to live vicariously through Justin. What a (you fill in the blank here).

I sure wish I was him right now. I have seen deer every time I have been out this season but just can not close the deal yet.
Tell him congratulations for me again.
That would definately scratch the old gizzard I’d think. Gotta congratulate him though – some years a guy gets all the luck and other years….! I figure if a guy uses up all his luck in one year, how many years till luck finds its way back again. Hopefully next year it’ll be back knocking.

Does he have a wall strong enough to hold up those racks!
Congratulations on a great season!!
Congrats to Justin. Very nice bucks.
And I filled in the blank for you. Just so you know.
