That nice buck makes the six-year wait (almost) worth waiting for.  Congratulations!

Great Buck and story. I have never had an animal shot out from in front of me and I hope I never do. Way to stick with it!

Congrats - happy for you
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Oh  we are  all in for blacktail.
Not to say that I won't be hunting my muzzle loader elk tag , and love to hunt bear and predators!
You just see so much cool stuff out in the woods.

Hubby  did my deer's skull today :) Super happy with it!
 He's been doing some skull work  lately ( not the bears, they were done by beetles)
