Before we get into the story, let's kick this off by saying HAPPY VETERANS DAY! To all those who have served, those currently serving, and those who will serve in the future, THANK YOU! We are forever indebted to you and will always be grateful for the freedoms you fight for. Is there a better way to enjoy the freedom of hunting than to spend Veterans Day in the woods? That is exactly what Jimbo did and it paid off with his first ever buck in the state of Iowa. After waiting many years to draw the tag, Jim saved plenty of vacation time for November. On day 4 of the hunt, Jim had a run in with this great buck that had slipped by him a couple of days prior while pursuing a hot doe. This time, the buck was alone and searching—the perfect time to call it in. Jim hit the grunt call and the old Iowa buck came right to the tree. Jim put a great shot on him and he didn't go far! Jim's third buck in three states for the year!
