Illinois BBD

Well I am on my annual Illinois deer hunt at my parents farm in Illinois and last night I just got the biggest buck I have ever shot. He has 19 scoreable points and was 240lbs field dressed. I set my stand up yesterday afternoon in a place that I know is good and got in my stand at at around 1:30pm. There was nothing going on till about 15 min till sun set and then I see a deer on the opposite edge of a cut bean field about 150 yards out and then this big buck chases him away and I could see he was a huge buck. Then he went back into the woods and I lost sight of him for about 5 min. Then all of a sudden I see a doe come running towards me across the bean field with this big guy right behind her. She enters the woods that I am sitting in and cuts up buy me. By this time I am already ready for when he comes in. I let the doe run past and I get him to stop at about 25 yards and I let one fly. After a short tracking job I found him in our creek bottom floating in the water. I will get more pics up when I get to a faster computer because here at my parents house they can only get dial up and I can't upload the field pics of him.
