What a gorgeous buck! Congrats!

I think Tom has you covered. If you have anymore questions after you get done reading all of that let us know!! :D:D

I'd just get out the gun, it would be more fun!

My Divorce Attorney...:taped:

Matt, dang man, awesome story! (brought a little tear to my eye )I don't know what to say. What an awesome hunt, memories that will last a lifetime, and you shared it all with dad. Congrats dad!! You deserve that buck.

Yep!

Holy MASS!! That's a stud!! Congrats!

Hey, you too Martin! I have the stand loaded with cashews, peanuts and butterfingers. I even put the coleman stove in it this year so I can heat up some venny chili I'm making tonight. I tried to tie a big buck up til Saturday but, them lil suckers are fast!! :clown:

Thanks Kirk. I just did it on photobucket for a little something different. ; ) Maybe so but, I'm still younger than Chris!! :clown:

LMBO!! I actually killed my first deer ever while waking up from a nap. :clown:

Ross bows are actually made by G5. I had a Ross and It was a great bow. VERY quiet... I'd recommend them to anyone...

Mike hung up his bow after yesterday mornings hunt. He's been giving it this whole time. He saw that monster 10 pointer a couple evenings ago by the pines that are by my gun tower. Hopefully he shows up Saturday morning so I can hear my 270WSM bark!

Well, as most of you know I had William up in Wisconsin for about a week of bowhunting. That man hunted his butt off and if anyone deserved a nice buck, it would be him. I'm a little hesitant to even post this as I feel bad for him. I actually had a really good week with multiple sightings of some truly great bucks. William on the other hand seemed to be in the wrong spot at the wrong time. I tried my best to put him in the right stands but, it seemed they always came to where I was. I'd sit in the exact same spots he did every year given the same conditions. (wind direction and lots of corn standing yet) Everything was a little different this year than normal. The big bucks weren't running the river bottom and they never started running the ridge until the last day of his hunt. Anyways, the last day of his hunt my buddy Mike had seen 10 different bucks and 5 of them ran the ridge so I told William to go sit in his favorite little pine tree, () and I'd go down to the river bottom while Mike sat on the food plot. We kinda had the entire area blocked off and one of us would probably get a chance at a nice buck. At 1:30 we headed to the stands and it was HOT, I think it hit 72 degrees that day. My stand was in the direct sun and I decided to curl up to the tree and get a little nap in. (it had been a long week LOL) At about 3pm I heard some brush snapping and a couple of grunts and this buck steps out at about 50 yards. He must have been bedded right there! He started heading my way and I eased back the Bone Collector Alphamax and got ready for a shot. By the time he turned completely broadside my top limb hit the leaning tree I was in and I had to let down. I carefully brought my bow to the other side of the tree and my buddy Mike let out a grunt call, stopping the buck perfectly at about 15 yards. I put the pin on him and sent the Rage tipped Carbon Express towards his heart. Thwack!! The arrow struck home and the buck made it about 50 yards and took a dirt nap. Mind you, William was watching this as it happened. Sorry Buddy...:oops: Not the biggest buck in the woods but a good one, none the less...

That's a cool looking buck! Congrats!

Great buck Dan! Nothing to be ashamed of but believe me,.......I know how you feel...

Ruth,.....you're like a deer killing machine!!! Congrats on a great buck!

Sounds like a pretty good Christmas present to me! Have fun sighting in that slug gun!! :crutch:

Just wondering if you need a special tag for them or does it fall under "small game"? Not that I ever would....

Happy Birthday you ole codger!! I hope your day is a great one!!

LMBO!! That is hilarious!! :clown:
