Patient hunter David Brugh rewarded with first trophy

mt%20brugh%20buck%20web.jpg
Here's a shot of my friend David Brugh with an awesome buck he killed Monday afternoon in Pulaski County.

David, who's another one of those guys who gets that hunting is about more than hanging antlers on the wall, has been hunting the place for four years, patiently passing up shots at smaller bucks. This is what happens to good people who are patient.

From the many reports I've gotten the past couple of days, action has been kind of slow. Maybe the warm spell had something to do with it. Today's wind certainly isn't pleasant.

But, usually, things do get kind of quiet right about now as bucks hole up with does.

I think things may be a bit quiet for a few days but it will pick up again.
