Well this is the first time I'm posting a picture! Sure hope it works, just figured out how to do it! Anyways this is my 8-Pointer I took the first day of the PA. archery season! The photos are a little blurry because I had to take pictures of my photos with my digital camera to get them on here!

Congrats on the buck, its a beauty.

Nice Buck, He looks like he has a large body. What did he weigh field dressed. CONGRATES.

Niuce buck buddy, good job and congrats.

Thanks guys!! Yes he was a big deer!We weighed him and he went 173 lbs field dressed! I hunt public land in Monroe County and he is the 2nd biggest bodied deer that I have taken in my 20 some years of hunting! I never thought I'd see a buck as big as him on opening day let alone getting one on the first day! I could not pass him up! He came by at about 12 yards!
Here is a pic. from my stand where I shot him.

Congrats on the buck!!

Good job Speed, I would like to hunt hardwoods like that some day. The woods I hunt are really thick with understory.

Looks like you had a great year, congrats!

Judgingby the pic from your stand it kinda looked like you didn't have too much cover. How did you manage to draw on him at 12yds without him seeing or hearing you? Replay the shot for us please. And congrats of course!

Well done.
