Balls on the ground

Tiny balls. Button buck balls. Garrett connected this morning! He was pretty stoked as was I. Had 4 move thru earlier. All yearlings. Told him Momma and a buck may not be far away. We waited a bit and I asked if he wanted me to try some calling. He said "Sure. That could work." Told him to be ready. I rattled a little and threw out some grunts. Just a minute or two later the trio of button bucks came in to see what was going on. He picked the biggest of the three. We discussed it and I told him NONE of them are real big. You can do whatever you want to though. It is your tag. He was eager to burn that tag. They were within 5-10yds. I thought he was going to wedge it into the mud he was so close shooting down from the buddy stand. lol

He is happy. I have work to do. For now he is recovered, cleaned up, and hanging in my salt container. Shop has my truck in it. Barn is full of mowers. Didn't want to leave it hanging outside to be snagged by a coyote.
