jmbuckhunter, that thing is HUGE!!!!I'm not haunted, but I think often of this buck I rattled in last year in Alberta. It was about noon time, I caught movement after a short sequence. This thick a$$ 10pt, probably 160",comes out of these spruce trees and willows about 20yrds straight in front of me. I stand, nocked and ready while he takes a couple of steps anglingto my right.He stops and looks around for the source of the "fight", I can see he's getting nervous.I can't move without being spotted because he's so close (19yrds) and small growth in the way. He turns and just walks directly away from me.
Iinitially second guessed my decision not to try a shot at him because I'm sure many guys would have, plus he was the biggest buck I've ever seen in my life.He was a real AlbertaPIG, around 300lbs I would guess. I look back and realize I gave that buck the "RESPECT" he deserved. A memory I will cherish.
