I wanted him to shoot it so I could hold out for something bigger. We had him patterned as far as the general area he was in. All the pictures we got of him were in and around one of our food plots, but all but a couple back in july were at night. It was luck as far as being there when he decided to show himself during daylight but we knew he was there. With all the scraping and rubbing going on it was just a matter of time till someone laid eyes on him, but with killing any deer regardless of size it takes a certain amount of luck to get the job done.
