Thanks for all of the warm replies. I honestly remembered more about the morning as time went by.....but I think I gave everyone the highlights (and then some...lol). I didn't mention coming to full draw and having to let off due to my peep being twisted. THAT was nerve-racking!

Here's a couple more photos of the buck. PLEASE forgive the shots that aren't very tasteful (I didn't intend for these to be 'trophy' shots). I did want to record the entrance wound.....and to give a differing view of his rack.These are for information purposes, only. I took MANY, MANY (lol) classy photos.

Jeff

Here's the rear view




Note the patch of missing hair on his back. We JUST had a post about this on Friday. My guess is he did this with his antlers.

Here's the entrance wound.

Congrat's on a beautiful buck Jeff. You have had a great season in the face of adversity with the "crazy neighbors" and all! The thing I like best about your stories is that you are very appreciative for you opportunities and thankful for your all of your blessings.
