Yes I have and one of my best. It was a 145" 13 pointer a few years ago. I could have shot a small 7 point still in velvet this year also, probably with a rock or a knife as he was right underneath me. But season is just starting and I like sitting in my tree. lol

My first ever buck was an opener kill. It was warm and I was young must have been 16 or 17, only about a 100 is buck but happy with it. no picture or rack, house burned down.

Cool Steven..what was that buck doing the day you shot it? Moving to feed late in the day? Catch him coming back in during the morning? Field? Deep woods?
50 yards away from the satnd)
i was hunting my favorite funnel about 80 yards from a big beanfield and on the other side of me was bedding(about 60 yards from the stand), the funnel is about 100 yards wide and 800 yards long witha giant ditch in the middle ofthat keeps the deer on one side or the other and the side with the my stand is the one were i see most deer passing through
