Great story, and a great buck! I also got my first after 4 years of trying as well this year. Any first buck is a trophy in my eyes!!! Good work, now time to enjoy some venison!

That is what it is all about. I have killed plenty of deer over the years and I still get excited every single time no matter how big or small the buck is. If I ever lose that, I will quit hunting

Congrats. The story is what makes the trophy.

He also learned rule number 2.  Keep your scope at its lowest power while hunting.  If somethings close, youll want it there.  If somethings far, youll have the opportunity to crank it up.  Ive recently found a fondness for 1-? Power scopes.
