Thanks everyone!
I truly do feel blessed to be able to take that buck. It is hard to put into words how I feel because this is the goal most of us hunters want to acheive that of killing a nice buck.

Anyways, it had a 19 and a half inch inside spread. I was hunting with an outfitter that I have hunted with before. This was my third time there in the last 4 years. It is Terry Hiers with Blackwater Hunting Services in Ulmer. He does advertise on this site. He has 6600 acres that are spread out throughout Barnwell county(no fences if you were wondering). I was there with my 2 brothers, nephewand the pastor from my church.

To be quite honest, the hunting was not great as it seems we hit the tail end of the rut. I was the only one of eight of us there to shoot a buck. Blackwater has a minimum inside spread of 12 inches for bucks.

I shot it on my first evening. Two does came out and i saw another deer in the woods and I glassed it and it spotted me so I had to freeze what seemed like an eternity. Finally it moved out into the clear cut with the other 2 does and it was a doe. About 5 to 10 minutes later out stepped this buck at 85 yards. As soon as his head cleared the woods, I knew he was shooter and put the cross hairs on him and the rest is history.

Again, thanks everyone for the congrats. Oh and thanks Rebfor putting the picture in the post, I am not quite sure how to do that(any tips would be appreciated)
