PIC OF THE WEEK:
This week’s "Pic of the Week" is Brent Eastman with a Vermont archery buck of a lifetime! Brent is no stranger to big bucks, but this one had him guessing. He had pictures all summer of the deer headed to food, and then again an hour before daylight headed to his bedding area. Brent hunted his buck every evening for the first few days of the season. He was running late on Saturday and was a little discouraged because someone had beat him to his spot. Brent decided to make a loop on the opposite side of the mountain. He knew of a really steep hillside with a small bench so thick with brush that you would have to crawl through it. Experience told him, although close to a house, it would make the perfect hiding spot for a wary buck. He set up on the ground for the evening hunt. After awhile he was feeling a little discouraged because so much pressure was being put on the buck, so he decided to head out. Besides, there was a pizza party going on at home and he thought maybe he’d be back before the wings were gone! Leaving at primetime was not in his nature and he took one last look and visualized the buck coming down off the bench. He had taken just a few quiet steps when he noticed movement; a buck was coming down the hill just as he envisioned! Brent froze and immediately knew it was the one he’d been hunting. The buck was walking with his nose to the ground and never noticed him. At 20 yards the buck turned slightly quartering towards Brent and he let his arrow fly. Brent saw the arrow travel through him and the buck did the biggest mule kick he had ever seen. Brent thought he heard a crash but not knowing exactly where the hit was he decided to back out. He called a friend and told him, "I think I got him!" His friend joined him and they went back around 10:00pm. His lighted knock showed up and the arrow was covered in blood! They found his beautiful buck piled up within 50 yards! Congratulations on a great Vermont whitetail!
