Congrats on a beautiful buck. Way to persevere. Prayers for your father too. It's great to hear you got to share that with him. I'm sure that meant a lot to both of you.

Awesome deer and story.

I have had many of those same reactions in the past - when I couldn't find the deer right away.

Congratulations.

AWESOME, AWESOME STORY!!

Man, if that don't wanna make everyone pull for you, I don't know what would...

The only thing missing is some pics with you and your Dad both in them...
