I've been talking to a family friend for a few months about hunting his land 4 miles from my house. Monday night we finally got the official permission. I went today on my lunch break and put out 2 cameras. There's a shiny new box stand in one of the fields. Land owner says nobody else should be out there. After work, I start putting Posted signs up by the road. After putting up 4 signs, I see this deer and a nice 6 point chasing a doe hard! I ran back to my truck, threw some orange on, grabbed my gun, and took off after them! After about 45 minutes of cat and mouse, I got within 210 yards of him. One shot through the heart and he dropped. He jumped up and ran 200 yards. I guess his testosterone and Adrenalin was pumping. Thanks to 762hunter for helping drag him out. I'd rather be lucky than good any day!

That's awesome! Congrats on the nice buck!

Now you'll be kicked off the property because you're one of those "lucky" hunters! haha
 
Congrats! Cool story too. I'd like to hear the rest of the "shiny new box stand" story too. Hmmm
It looks as if somebody has been hunting the land for some time. The land owner doesn't hunt or even go out to the property to look it over. My guess is somebody that lives near by has been hunting. I'll finish up the posted signs today and have a note stapled to the box stand. I spoke with the land owner last night and he said that the stand stays where it is if I want it!
