PB TROPHY BUCK GOES DOWN! The Hunt for the POND DEER

This video continues my hunt for the pond deer. We are late season whitetail hunting on low fence in the Texas hill country and focusing on are area of the deer lease my a pond where I haven't seen many deer, but there are a few BIG bucks! The buck I harvesting ended up measuring 140 inches on the dot, making it my PB antler spread on any buck I have ever hunted.

[@matkas3445]

Nice deer. Never understood the excitement of hunting any animal over a feeder. To each their own

[@Ozarkemptynesters]

I've seen this sort of comment on several hunting videos, and while I agree that scouting/calling/patterning is more satisfying, hunting over a feeder to a landowner/leaser is very rewarding. Me and my neighbor have over 1300 acres that we own/manage. We feed and plant food plots that keep the deer coming in basically year round. We sometimes watch the same groups of deer for several years and make decisions on which ones we harvest and which ones we let walk every year. Also we cull does that don't drop a fawn every year. Over the years the deer population on our land (and the land around us) is very healthy with large does and bucks. I get a lot of excitement when I take a nice buck that I've been basically raising for a few years. Like you said, to each their own, but that's what makes it exciting/rewarding to me.

[@kennynewell85]

@@Ozarkemptynesters right on Sir! I live in NW Florida, the public land is a mad house. I make two or three trips a year to hunt my cousin small property in Mississippi. He was raised hunting feeders and still does. I gladly take the opportunity to harvest meat for my family from under a feeder. In my opinion there is no difference between a feeder and a food plot. To each his on. Be blessed.

I’ve hunted 82 hours since November 21 and have yet to take a deer. I see deer every time I go but one thing I’ve learned having the entire right side of my body paralyzed is that patience is key. The best things happen when you least expect it. Season closes here in Tennessee on January 3rd so I might not get the opportunity to get a deer this season but it’s been a fun one. Congrats on your monster deer LFG!!

[@alquinn3562]

Reading the comments about attracting deer with a feeder. Game depts regulate harvest and methods. It’s legal so no problem. Certain states used to allow dogs to hunt deer. Maybe still do. Party hunting and deer drives are tradition in other states. So it’s tradition in Texas. I remember living in Pennsylvania and saw stacks of small 6’s, 4,s and spike bucks. Deer were rare and you killed the first thing you saw. They never grew up. If you expect and do see lots of deer you can harvest the mature ones and let the genes manifest themselves and be passed on by the 3.5 year olds bucks in their prime. Take the 5.5 year olds (and older) home. Take the management bucks off. They are still trophies if nothing else for the odd looking racks👍

[@darkreelaction]

Awesome buck but young deer would’ve been a giant in a year or 2 getting some bigger G4’s and adding more mass. Along with letting bucks like that walk allows them to spread their sweet genes and have more future studs. Besides my rant that is one sweet buck. Congrats

The reason he was worried about whether or not he smoked it is because, when the deer took off, the tail came up and it flagged. A deer that's hit hard almost never flags when it takes off. Usually the tail stays down if they've been hit good.
