I should of posted this sooner but figured it would help get y'all pumped for season as its right around the corner. After countless sits last season and only getting a glimpse of this deer in late September , he finally screwed up and I got lucky on 12/27 to put an arrow through the 147" bruiser at 27 steps from my tree. Never give up and don't under estimate the importance of hunting the correct wind, especially for a old mature deer.
This buck disappeared late September and I had no pics of him for about 2 months.... guess he left his home range for the rut, but I was ready and waiting when he finally returned home !
