Wasn't sure if the pic was gonna go through so here's the story.  Got my boy his buck last weekend on the opener, so after a looong week at work I was out Saturday morning hunting a clearcut that i had seen a lot of sign in and some big track.  I only saw 15 does Saturday morning and wasn't sure if I would ever find the kinda buck I was looking for.  I talked to a buddy Saturday and he said that his daughter shot a nice buck Saturday morning that was chasing does, so Sunday when I got up I decided to head back to where I had seen all the does the day before hoping a big buck would be with them.  As daylight broke I was heading down a burmed up skid road and was noticing a lot of fresh tracks in the road and two rubs along the road that weren't there the day before.  Looking promising.  About a half mile in I see a doe feeding along the road.  She put her head back down, so I moved quickly to where she couldn't see me and moved closer.  At 20 yards I ran out of cover, so I decided to step out and see what happened.  As soon as she saw me she snorted and took off down the steep clearcut.  I ran over to the edge and there were deer standing in every direction.  As I was scanning the area I hear a deer take off to my left and all I could see was rack.  He took two big jumps and started trotting down the hill.  I threw up the gun found his shoulder and fired.  A few seconds later he was down.  I had to idea how big he really was but was pleasantly surprised when I walked up to him.  He is a 4x5 with kinda a split main beam on the left antler.  He was pretty stinky and had a really swollen neck so all you guys that still have tags, this should be a good week.
