He came out tonight! Just after dark, I was pinned down in my stand for almost 2 hours after dark waiting for deer to clear out my right foot was frozen! Smart old buck, he came in just after I couldn't see my pins any more than used the thick brush to leave. I was finally covered up in deer tonight, I think if I would have gotten in an hour earlier he may have come down during light I didn't get in my stand until 3:15.

Keep up the good work. He is a beautiful animal! Good luck and shoot straight!

I recovered him this morning right where I left him last night. The crash I heard was him expiring he didn't go 50 yards after being hit.

I will post pics in a bit. Craziest thing is both his antlers popped off and we're laying next to him when I walked up on him this morning. I doubt he would have made it through the winter he was an old warrior with a scarred face and torn up ears from years of battling it out. The shot was about 3 inches back from the goodies but got one lung.

Thank you all for your support

That's interesting about his antlers popping off like that and laying there.   GLAD you found him.

This is how I found him, I didnt move anything this is the AHL pic. I was pretty surprised to see that he dropped his antlers when he died.
