Great buck and a great story to go with it! The best talks with our Lord is when we are alone with him in the deer stand. Congrats on a true trophy.

Neither. We just made friends up there and one relationship led to another. We hunt for free. It's a rare situation.

Thanks for sharing this incredible hunt (of course they all are, but this one was just a bit more incredible) that ended better than you could have imagined. Absolutely gorgeous beast!

Glad you got back up here brother!

Btw...headed back to Iowa right now

That right there is how you tell a hunting story in a thread!

You fellers that just say "I killed him in a county north of Atlanta", take note.

Congratulations. Also impressive considering last weekend was probably a war zone with guns. I promised myself I would not bowhunt illinois the thanksgiving week after the first gun weekend ever again. The remaining deer are a little shy to say the least.

Yeah, with that AND a full moon on Thanksgiving, I knew it would be hard hunting.
