Fantastic deer, and great write up. Thanks for coming on and sharing with us. I had heard about your buck, but it was great to hear the whole story and see your photos.  :tup:

Great story about benefits of scouting and persistence!  Congratulations on that toad and overall experience.  My guess is 5-1/2 years so I'll be curious what the lab comes back with.

Such a cool buck!! Congrats on the hard work and payoff. Thanks for the story and all the pictures. Have an area I believe is holding bucks. Perhaps this tactic would work if I put in the work.

That's a great story.

How does one even describe that rack?  Please share the scoring when you can.

Great deer and write up! This reminds me that I need to put in a lot more time etc. if I want to bag something like that. Barring luck, it doesn't come easy.
