This is my first buck, and my first muzzleloader kill. I was hunting the same spot I was at yesterday morning when I missed a shot at a really nice doe. I hunt from the ground using natural cover, and once I got positioned I did a couple bleats and a couple grunts. After about 10 minutes I heard something rustling in the leaves at the top of the ridge. I thought it was a squirrel actually, but then I saw him headed my way. He was making a beeline straight towards the next ridge. I shot him on the move not 15 yards away from me. He dropped in his tracks.

He dressed out at 120 pounds.

So, I know he's not the biggest, but I'm tickled all the same.
