Thanks guys. it was a blast. that is the buck i wanted. he's not huge but he's the biggest buck that was hanging around my woods. i had pics in velvet of a nice 10 but haven't gotten pics of him since mid august.

i'm going to the minnesota camp ripley hunt in 2 weeks. did you all see the buck shot out of there this week? unbelievable knarly 32 point monster. the guy that shot it is cousins w/ a friend of mine. i can't wait for that hunt. i'm rifle hunting in mn and wisconsin this year too so I have some hunting left in me this year
