VA success
 
Hey Guys,
I posted this on the crossbow forum also. I took my father-in-law out to one of my secret spots in Fairfax on Saturday. I have been saving this property for him to hunt whenever he could come up. I have been putting the trailcams on it pretty much every week and have one big 8ptr that is once again predictable. I set us up in afunnel and wouldn't you know it, he came stiff legging it in at 7am and my father-in-law put a great shot on him. He went about 40 yards and went down. It is the largest deer he has ever shot and was a brilliant day. I have about 8 trailcam shots of this buck since October. Any idea what you think he would score?

Congrats that is a great buck. You must have a good relationship with your father in law because that was awfully generous of you. Good to see nice bucks killed in VA.

Nice buck! I'd have to say around 130 also.

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I measured the buck and he scored 139 4/8's, but I know he has to dry for 60 days. I think he will definately beat the 125 P&Y minimum. I don't know if P&Y recognizes crossbows or not.
