HuntingNet.com Forums - Opening Day Buck!!!

Hello All,
Shot this Deer Opening morning. He was on the move and locked up in front of my stand, probably the doe scent? Time I clipped on he was on the move again. A quick mouth grunt stopped him long enough to drop my pin on him at 17 yrds to my left. He decided to take off about the same time I released. The shot hit little back but pretty sure got liver. I watched him cross field and walk into the timber across the road. Found arrow with some stomach/ dark blood on it. I left to give him sometime to hopefully bed up. Time I got permission and got back out to search other timber it was right at 5 hrs later. Time I got back out it started to rain pretty good. Searched about 2 hrs and decided to go back and let the rain slack off. I ran into a guy that knew that area pretty good so him and I went out after the rain settled. went passed the previous searched timber. Went to search aarea that was a little thicker and had a pond farther back. Anyways I went in about 70 yrds and ran into him:s1: What and exausting in day. This Buck had 3 points on each fronts of the main beams, but one was broke on his right side. Big split 2 and a really short double bladed browtine also on right, hard to see in pic. If counted the broke off tine and the sticker below browntine he would of been a 15, so my son says....ha! Sorry so long, but could talk for hrs about this hunt:woot:

Sorry about pic with tounge out! It wasn't till the second pic that I checked and this one happened to be the best to see the rack.
