Default First buck Down!

Hello all,
First buck of the year!! The first time I seen him was in the morning. I grunted at him as he passed about 35 yrds away behind a bunch of trees and brush, he paid no attention to me.I went back out for an evening hunt. Later that afternoonhe was coming back the other way about 60 yrds outsame thing happened. I grunted at him and he just kept going. I then hear him cross the creek, figured he was not coming back. So I waited about 15 minutes and hit the rattle bag. A little bit later he comes back on the same path he crossed the creek on, I hit the grunt! Finally he stops and turns and heads my way..... He came to about 35 yrds and stops,thenstarts rubbing a tree. After a few minutes of that I grunted again and here he comes.Perfect shot through the boiler room at 16yrds. He went about 40 yrds and piled up. We figured he weighed about 220-230 lbs!
I thought for a six point w/ a little kicker on right side he was pretty descent! I didn't have my camera on me[:@]. I had to get these from a friend who took a couple pics when I stop bye to show him...sorry
I know he won't score much, but any guesses?
Thanks!
