He's a bigum... I guessin 220....190 dressed

...Did he come in fast to the horns?.. The weather is starting to turn around here in NY...
About a half hour after i was done rattling i heard a bunch of sticks breaking and i thought, thats pretty noisy for a deer! A few minutes later i could see a bush moving and here he was raking a small bushy tree pretty hard. After that he came broad side at 12 yards and i let him go thinking he was a tad bit to small.He was underneath my tree for like 20 minutes or so and the longer he sat there the more i thought he was big enough. I'm sure happy i didn't pass on him the second time! I shot him at 18 yards, thats getting out there for me! I usually don't shoot at nothing over 20 yards. Oh and the deer weighed 210lbs field dressed! By far theheaviest deer i've ever shot!I figured 175lbs when i seen him.
