Tennessee 8 Point
by Troy Smithson
8 point My dad and I were hunting some TVA land in Maury County TN. It was Nov 24, 2006 and I don't remember how cold it was, but it was cold. We set up behind a round bail of hay and hit the rattling box on and off for about an hour and hit the grunt call pretty aggressively. About an hour and a half in he walked out into the field we were in and he was mad. He caught our scent and made a run for it, but luckily I got the shot off and nailed him...he went about 60 yards into the woods before falling. He was killed with a Remington 30-06 model 710 ...150 grain bullet. He measured 18 and 5/8 outside spread. That's my beautiful daughter Destiny holding him. Click here to read or post comments. |
