Adams County Rush

Dateline 12/19 Adams County, Ohio, 9:05 AM


It was a snowy December morning during the deer gun law bonus weekend. An hour and a half into the hunt, who decided to rear its horned head, but a nice 6 point buck. He stood a mere 50 yards away staring straight at you revealing nothing but antlers and the white of his chest. In a flash it was lights out! You put a hole in his chest with an exit wound right behind his ribs. He scurried a paltry 15 feet while kicking and flailing for only a few seconds, before giving in to his demise.

Wow! What a rush to bag such a cunning, keen animal, and from such a short distance. Within minutes the deer was headed down the mountain, field dressed, and washed out, on its way to the bed of a pick-up truck.
