Well were on the board boys! He isn't the biggest, but I am still happy. I shot a 5pt that will roughly score about 50 or so. I had a pretty good week off for vacation, I seen 9 different bucks. I shot the 5 pt Friday morning, the biggest buck I seen was about a 14inch 8pt. I just didn't see anything big, but did hear some cool stuff I'll put in the full story and pics. The story is quite amusing from shot to recovery. Short version-- hit a twig (didn't see), still hit deer just way far back in guts, wait 7.5 hrs, good blood trail for a stomach shot, deer doubles back and confuses us for a bit, walk up to 6yds of the buck (thick, can't see him) and he is looking right at me, I back out and leave my buddy with a visual, about an hour later come back with bow, watch and creep in closer to try for a shot, finally at 4yds I can shoot through some fine twigs and put a heart shot on him.

Good luck to everyone, I still have my restricted tag (4pts or better on one side or a doe) that I am hoping to fill when I go to the U.P.

I will get my buck entered on Monday or so with pics and a full story.
