Truly awesome! And so neat that you could share the moment with friends and family. You all put in the hard work and it paid off. Love to see the genuine gratefulness and thanks given where it's due. A hearty (and slightly jealous) congratulations!  :tup:

Congratulations!  More like the buck of several thousand lifetimes! 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Congratulations on that awesome buck well done. That's definitely the quality of buck we as hunters all strive for. At least I know I do. I'm wondering if not knowing just how truly big he was helped you make a good quality shot? Because I would have been shaking like a leaf if I seen all of that in the crosshairs!
