Here is my IL shotgun kill. I killed the buck on last Saturday afternoon after watching him for about 10 minutes rubbing small sapplings until they broke. I had decided not to shoot him and had already let one just like him go by at 25yds before I could even get up in the tree. I could have shot him at any time while he was rubbing but chose to hold off, then at the last minute as he started to leave I gave in and shot him at about 50yds. He has a meager gross score of 108 1/8 and nets 105 2/8. He field dressed in the neighborhood of 160 lbs. I don't know if he will help IL, but maybe I can hold myself back the rest of the bow season and kill a really big buck.
