SIDEWAY'S SCORE'S
What a awesome morning to hunt today, weather was cold with a mild puff of air out of the South.
The woods were quiet and dry.
I got to my stand around 5:45am making as little noise as possible, after getting settled in I sat down and looked up to the sky, thanked the man above for being able to celebrate the moment.
About 6:40 I hear the familiar crunch of leaves behind me, not wanting to move I sat tight.
Finally the rustling got closer and was to my right, I glanced over barely twisting my neck, there he was broadside.
I had to let him take a couple more steps to pass me before I could stand up, once I stood up he stopped, my heart sank.
I thought I was busted but he was focused straight ahead, I drew but could not find the pin on my pendulim sight, he took another 3 or 4 steps, I found the pin and released.
A clean miss right over top of his back, I cussed!
He jumped and took another 5 or 6 steps and stopped, I grabbed another arrow from my quiver, he was now quartering away from me and up against the same treeline I was in about 25 yards away.
I drew, put the pin on him just in front of the stomach, I released the Carbon Express Maxima and hit him.
He ran another 20 yards and dropped.

8 points, dressed out 118lbs, Ihave no clue how to score abuck buthave a call into a friend of mine that will help.
He is by far my best buck up to now and will adorn my wall!

Vashadow, can you check and see if this photo will qualify?
The bow is there, just hard to see.
Thanks
